the Was. of Jimmy McVonson - act one; division nine: Killing Myself

suicide, extreme shame

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspmO4C9rtq

my neck was sore when i woke up

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfqdfB51sm

and i thought

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3IkXN3f9c

i felt brave enough to do it

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdkXVB1noW

to get rid of myself

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLWUPHYjod

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzXG1N0n7o

you want a reason?

this is my reason:

there is no adult version of me

there is nothing after this

i don't know it

i don't care to know it

i take too much and i give too little

i'm a parasite

and the fact that nobody else is brave enough to say it

only makes it worse

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKciH97r2gX

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8bjipajP6

i didn’t want pops to see me kill myself

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLr0Y06d2FF

gail wouldn’t have noticed if she did

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTp1KxwQdXK

i decided to go far away

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdlBjtBtAG

i kept walking

until the area stopped feeling like my hometown

it felt like desert

but it wasn’t desert

it was just slightly more rural than i was used to

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzKX4S6DCJ

there was a small cramped dairy

the bright colours made me feel like going inside

i’d like to look at all the pretty snacks

but i didn’t go

because it’s not a library

shops expect you to buy stuff

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhx5a19zrgC

it was cold

i was just in a t-shirt and jeans

not a plain t-shirt

never a plain t-shirt

but it wasn’t very warm

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qQfruGw9G

it started spitting

not too wet

but very cold

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLEeeT6yym

i said aloud to myself

“let’s get this over with”

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjUgvqwfzV

i pretended to myself

that it was a smaller deal

'nothing to worry too much about.'

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W17kbbRYt

there was a brown-orange train track running through the grassy hills

not many people were around

because it was a sunday morning

and it wasn’t a stereotypically beautiful day

but there were still trains

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtmRqMjc9q

i could see one coming

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvX0BIIBij

i went to stand on the train track

as the train was coming along

i was nervous

or excited

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZi8B30rfqt

to feel the force

i’d never felt before

that was strong enough to kill me

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcGr5X5Yj3

or maybe it’s the train

cutting against the tracks that would do it

would that be possible?

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ve11aSZzu

either way i was ready

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnJEX7M5yD

i wanted to be dead

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaWiFdbJWc

now

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkblzWo5Ek8

but the train stopped

with a loud screech

and someone got out

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80NE0Hm5t4

i wasn’t prepared to get yelled at

or to explain myself

or to say sorry

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK1OZut3xJ

i hadn’t considered that the people in the train might be affected too

and that made me feel worse than before

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEcgtqArOF

so i ran

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsXHsVx7VV

i just fled the scene

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡras8KcD1Bi

because there was nothing else i had energy for

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3wkU9YuPH

fuck.

i tried choking myself with a piece of flax

behind the flax bush where no one could see me

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALOWiiD9Rx

it didn’t work

it was never going to work

it was a stupid idea

462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8Qj58QVYm

and i was stupid

and crouched in a damp bush

with no heart to do anything else

end.462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAF95BWE6yT
