How did you make this work:
The story tells of a youngling navigating his sense of grief after the death of a beloved one. He cried so much in bed that his tears spilled and became a metaphorical sea. This idea is an homage to those whom had lost a parent especially at a young age, such as myself. It captures the feeling of loss and being lost, as if the whole world is against you.
