I do have a suggestion though, in terms of developing this as a haiku. Although I understand that it is linked to the last one, and it has a nice flow, I think you are right that it doesn't stand alone as a haiku, and that is because I think it needs another image to set off the one you have. What you have is EXCELLENT but it is really only the second half of a haiku - like so:
the tide pulls
me underneath
It needs another image. I am going to use a semi-cliche one to illustrate what I mean:
summer heat
the tide pulls
me underneath
So, yeah, I really think this needs another image to start it, in order to juxtapose something with the lovely image you have, thus transforming it from a sentence into a haiku proper.
But whatever you decide is fine, of course. On its own it still makes a nice link - but classically each link should still have its own internal juxtaposition, which sets off in juxtaposition to the other poem.
