My eyes were filled with tears. I knew what I was doing. But I didn't know why.
I just didn't want all of this anymore. It was all too much and I wanted to leave it all behind.
I deliberately chose a bridge away from civilization. No one would know. No one would notice. I stood on the edge, staring down into the darkness. As if this all wasn't dramatic enough, it also began to rain.
My hair was soaked within minutes, clothes felt heavy against my skin. I quickly looked around a bit, to make sure that there was really no one to see this happen.
