suicide, extreme shame

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjepMUaokNc

my neck was sore when i woke up

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOOeS4uLWn

and i thought

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5yYBBAjFE

i felt brave enough to do it

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXZWngLEnB

to get rid of myself

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt6K76RM0H

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpbVvmLQYH

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

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5d8DWkWrF

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93lQ7GpY3h

i didn’t want pops to see me kill myself

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUe3JF4GtM

gail wouldn’t have noticed if she did

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8631yCsTB

i decided to go far away

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLHWElJbQv

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

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVhIXqAgr8

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

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurnQvAE32o

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

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTQL3GSCXA

it started spitting

not too wet

but very cold

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjxUWHjBjX

i said aloud to myself

“let’s get this over with”

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9mlef6Thb

i pretended to myself

that it was a smaller deal

'nothing to worry too much about.'

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVKleTsS2h

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

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIcHADCFZN

i could see one coming

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswA31QorTt

i went to stand on the train track

as the train was coming along

i was nervous

or excited

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TD3138ITy

to feel the force

i’d never felt before

that was strong enough to kill me

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0ENMT80vc

or maybe it’s the train

cutting against the tracks that would do it

would that be possible?

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErDxncwQDk

either way i was ready

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVEYxc6add

i wanted to be dead

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD6DDzhl05

now

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoyTMYR4Bt

but the train stopped

with a loud screech

and someone got out

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR9pvhWqQP

i wasn’t prepared to get yelled at

or to explain myself

or to say sorry

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLnYcHwxmk

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

and that made me feel worse than before

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcyhraNFcl

so i ran

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljnIlMq3n7

i just fled the scene

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiagihHn8w

because there was nothing else i had energy for

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi69pJDIvzz

fuck.

i tried choking myself with a piece of flax

behind the flax bush where no one could see me

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz51ZzNxt07

it didn’t work

it was never going to work

it was a stupid idea

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhfXOZsxDQ

and i was stupid

and crouched in a damp bush

with no heart to do anything else

end.463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRBh25L2Wo
