**note**
This is not my story. It is my friend's. And yes, it is true. She asked me to publish it. It's from her sacred journal. It's not a story she made up, it's her life. It's in quotes because they're her exact words
Enjoy

************************************

"While others sleep at night, I stay awake walking the tight rope across the abyss. The black, suicidal abyss my depression created for me. I have fallen before. I have fallen many times before. But now, k seem to be chained to the rope. So when I do fall, I never truly fall. I hate the chain. I want to fall into the abyss, but I can't. He is the chain; the only thing keeping me from falling deep into the inescapable blackness. Sometimes I wonder where I would be if I never would have met him. I would be in that abyss. I would be laying dead in that blackness. Never to breathe a single breath or speak a single word ever again. Gone. I would be gone without the chain. That chain is what's holding me here. He is what's holding me here."
