642 Tiny Things to Write About

Prompt Three: The First...

Prompt: The first or last chapter of the book you lack the courage to publish is...

My answer: "Cars dashed by, terribly oblivious of the events about to conspire right above them, much like everyone I had encountered along my path of miserable living. I peered over the railing of the bridge, trying to imagine what it would feel like hitting the concrete. Would there be pain, or would it be over too soon to feel anything? Did death feel like anything? It wasn't like I had been given any information about the choice I was close to making. It all just looked so, busy. Like everyone had somewhere to be and someone to be with, except me. Lonely me. Forever by myself."

I thought this question was a fitting one, considering Wattpad is a site of writers and readers, and everyone thats ever tried to write a book has known the struggle of not having the courage to publish a work. This is the first chapter of a book I have been writing for a little bit lately, and it's really deep and angsty so I'm not sure whether to publish it, as its kind of dark and controversial, and I don't know how people will react. I'm really interested to see what chapter you guys will post in the comments, so don't be shy!
