Every abrupt ending

Every abrupt ending has a begging

Cassandra, have you found me yet?

I was hiding in the lake when we played hide and seek and something pulled me under.

It was so calm and silent underneath that lake

Then

Crescendo!

There's a whole world under here, and its bliss, baby

I hope to see you soon, but I think not. I think I've fallen off the side of the earth

Here I stand, staring upon the sky- as water and algae and hydra's and water bears as the stars.

Cassandra, I'll always remember you

But I think I found my place somewhere in the mossy bottom of the stratosphere

I'm lifted lifted lifted…

I come out the pool gasping for breath; water comes pouring out of my throat

I'm floating on my back in a mossy pond, my eyes starting to adjust to the light.

"I found you!" Cassandra yells

I feel so out of the loop because after reading this, I feel like I'm missing something.

The feeling will pass though.

Brilliant I believe.

It gives me a dreamy staring at the bottom of a pond and not seeing your reflection even though it is?

Anyway..

I liked it.
