I have a secret
A lot of things has happened,a lot of secrets has been kept.....no matter how my life may seem to get tougher,I keep telling myself it is okay, when I know deep down that it is not okay.
      
  My life seems like an unbreakable wall,a wall I wanted to break. It was like a mystery,a mystery I wanted to solve. A secret I wish it was revealed to me.
      
  I closed my eyes, trying to calm myself down,but it soon failed,tears were already flowing down my cheeks. I swipe the tears away, and I sniffled a little.
     
  They were so many secrets that was kept,I was a burden to everyone,they pushed me away like a storm, and I was scared, afraid, and I wanted to know the truth.
 
  The wind blows, and there was an heavy storm, causing the thunder to struck loudly.I shivered a little,at the sound of the thunder. I kept running,I ran with my bare foot. It was a cold night that day, when it started to rain,I ran as the water of the heavy rain pour hard on me.....It wasn't meant to be like this.

  I screamed hard at the big river in front of me,I screamed like it could hear me,I sobbed hard, like it could heal my cry.....I screamed on top of my lungs. I closed my eyes as the wind blows my hair.
   
  I opened my eyes slowly,as I watched the big river flows from side to side. They said I was crazy,they said I should have been dead,they wanted me gone just like my parents.
The sky was yet to be seen, and the cloud moves to reveal the moon;I let out all the tears,I was tired, and sick of being a burden to everyone.
  
  I wanted to end it here.

The rain pour hard,as I closed my eyes with tears. Stepping forward to the big river,I was about to jump when someone held my hands. The tears were coming out slowly as I turn towards the person who grabbed me from jumping.
 
It was an unfamiliar woman,a woman have never seen before. The rain pour on us,it poured harder than before and I stared at the woman,as she reached her hand towards me.And then she whispered
"It's okay"
 
I slowly reached for her hand, holding back my tears,as she took a step forward to me and slowly wiped my tears

"I don't know why you want to commit suicide"she start to say and I gulped a little"but listen to me,I have lost someone special and do you know why I couldn't give up?why I couldn't commit suicide and end my life"?she asked staring at me"Because there is more to life than committing suicide"she whispered
