I used to come here to draw sometimes or just to get away from everything and everyone. It was quiet and peaceful but now that I know the truth this place is loud and chaotic. I walked along the wooden pier and I could hear the waves pummelling the rocks below. I wanted this more than anything. I couldn't keep living and I didn't even want to try. I couldn't feel anything. The icy winds felt like knives against my skin but I felt no pain, not even by the hundreds of splinters going into my bare feet. I reached the end of the pier and climbed up on the fence. I sat there for a while watching the moon dance with the stars. Maybe my next life will be better. Anything was better than this life. I wish my life turned out differently. Maybe if my parents were still alive things might have been a whole lot better. Maybe this was my fault and I'm being punished for something I did in a previous life.

I don't know long had passed but it was time for me to end my story. I got out my compact mirror from my bag. I went to smash it but then something caught my eye. It was the necklace that Jamie got me shimmering in the moonlight. Maybe Jamie didn't know and he was an actual friend this whole time seeing as he did protect me from getting arrested and stop me from getting beat up more. No. He must have known. He's friends with Melissa and the others. It doesn't matter if he was a part of it all or not I don't care anymore. I smashed the mirror and took the sharpest shard and began. I ripped off my sleeves revealing a lifetime of scars. I slit both of my wrists stood on the top post. I said my goodbyes to the world and went to jump.
