I thought, that just maybe, it would work. That I could get rid of the pain by ending a heartbeat, a pulse, killing braincells. That my head would be clear and I'd have no worries.
But it didn't work. And now I lay here crying and sick to my stomach. I lay angry at myself, and I lay angry at God. He didn't let me go like I prayed. He didn't give me what I needed. He didn't give me release.
I wasn't meant to live long. I was meant to die at a young age, to suffer through life and hurt with the greatest amount of pain. I was meant to be crushed, forgotten, left, and broke.
But God, he did his work. He saved me. He saved my life because he thinks I'm important.
And now, I lay here with unfinished business. I don't know what it is. But, it's there, hanging over my head and waiting to be complete.
