How big a goldfish gets depends on the size of its home. A small goldfish lives in a small bowl. A big goldfish lives in a pond.
She moved from her small town to a big city. She thought she could be a star. But when she arrived, her size stayed the same, and the sharks stayed at the top.
Goldfish don’t come from the wild, they are bred. Goldfish are designed by man to be used as pets. Only when a goldfish dies does it float to the top.
She died a goldfish, and her funeral was attended by many. She had made a splash. Then they flushed her down the toilet.
R.I.P. Goldie, the Goldfish.
That’s such a sad ending for such a star of a goldfish! 😥 At least she tried. 😦 Sometimes our dreams are just bigger than our ability to reach them. Wonderful stori Jorbi.

Well it’s very true, how much do we really care about gold fish. They die and we buy another one for cheap.

What a way to go.
I like how you wove the life of this little creature into what can happen to those who do not achieve their dreams.

I really love this! The symbolism and the final end say so much in such a little space. Definitely one of the best ones I have read this sequence! 🙂

Aww poor goldie! I almost thought this was going to be two separate beings (a goldfish and a young woman) or that the goldfish reference was just an analogy… but hey! you did great with it anyway!

Yeah, the intention was to make the reader think they were two separate beings, one used as an analogy for the other. But sometimes, a dead fish is just a dead fish.
