DISCLAIMER:I DON'T OWN LOST OR ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT. I DON'T EVEN HAVE LOST MERCHANDISE.
Kate's thoughts while 'sinking' in the sand.
My first Lost fic. Very, very short. Please read and review! I will be writing a much longer Charlie fic soon too. Also a Harry Potter one. I haven't written in a while, though. I am not too happy with this one. Not as great as I intended it to be...ah, well. Review!
Do you know that feeling when the world seems to be spinning so fast, everything is a blur, yet you are standing in place? You are not moving, yet somehow, miraculously, you know you are going to fall. The waves are splashing back and forth. Opportuinities to do the right thing coming and going in a blink of time. You try to move, yet you are stuck in the same place. Never getting anywhere. And when all seems to be failing, when everything seems to be hopeless, you find the perfect shell land next to your feet. You know that if you don't grab it soon enough it will slip away. Like all the others. I picked up that shell and examined it for a moment.An oyster shell. Then I realized, shells are like people, too. All are beautiful in their own way. Black or grey would seem boring to the next person walking by, but if you look, there is so much beauty to be seen. There may be algea growing on it. Oh, yes, there might be...but if you clean it up, and not lose that beautiful shell. Keep it safe and care for it as much as you can. It will get better. And if you look deep enough you will find the beautiful pearl hidden inside.
