I step into my bathroom, tears streaming down my face. 
"What's the point, what's the point of receiving love if it's not from the person I want?"
I hold my head in my hands, in a desperate attempt to suppress the migraine that mercilessly latched onto the left side of my brain.
Tears blocked my vision as I scooped a handful of pills, making sure this time, the amount was sufficient.
How is it that the one thing on this earth that I want, I cannot get 
I looked at the pills in my hand and shook my head, as a fit of laughter erupted from me. 
Who was I kidding? there was never a light at the end of my tunnel. There was never and will never be a day when happiness would be a lifestyle.
I was never meant to be here.
I scoffed to myself  as I whispered in defeat
"I was never meant to be here" in realization that the one day, I so desperately waited for, carrying my burdens through the calamities of life and hoped for, never came.

Shoving the pills down my throat, the world became hazy in less than a few minutes, a funny feeling began to stir up in my abdomen as I faded away from reality, this time for life.
