suicide, extreme shame

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58wpTC39yb

my neck was sore when i woke up

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6l7xXJpmt8

and i thought

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v7eNn9iFm

i felt brave enough to do it

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM83ecO14i5

to get rid of myself

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlG7Og2pty

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1ZAClwtNA

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyT6YenZwh

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDl5nVlXlCj

i didn’t want pops to see me kill myself

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qHiFMjtcL

gail wouldn’t have noticed if she did

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDy4Ppij07a

i decided to go far away

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4mazb0nTE

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTj4CP2G13

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uRXc6nKJQ

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQrCCGi48K

it started spitting

not too wet

but very cold

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nqbt30SF6

i said aloud to myself

“let’s get this over with”

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFjbSPCkI6

i pretended to myself

that it was a smaller deal

'nothing to worry too much about.'

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7LpfaBDbJ

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OoONcdzNR

i could see one coming

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GH2oeRqz2

i went to stand on the train track

as the train was coming along

i was nervous

or excited

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFxazTgdii

to feel the force

i’d never felt before

that was strong enough to kill me

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwxOYxeQIT

or maybe it’s the train

cutting against the tracks that would do it

would that be possible?

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFCFwLPqrR

either way i was ready

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mIPuzfzf2

i wanted to be dead

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQGqR2vxkq

now

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSuVWQLs2O

but the train stopped

with a loud screech

and someone got out

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaX1o00P76

i wasn’t prepared to get yelled at

or to explain myself

or to say sorry

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CW4T0ET2p

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlZ1zCKx51

so i ran

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqd28Z97S4

i just fled the scene

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j9M7Q6rqt

because there was nothing else i had energy for

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoLvdfTINO

fuck.

i tried choking myself with a piece of flax

behind the flax bush where no one could see me

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZxyOXjkKc

it didn’t work

it was never going to work

it was a stupid idea

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQA7UMfNVxA

and i was stupid

and crouched in a damp bush

with no heart to do anything else
