The day you take your life, do you wake up like it's any other day? Are you happy or excited? Or are you hoping you’ll find something that’ll make you want to stay? The day you take your life, do you brush your teeth extra clean or wash yourself more carefully to make sure you’re pristine? Do you pick the special outfit your mother got you when you were small? Or do you disregard every morning routine in the hours leading up to the fall?

The day you take your life, do you say goodbye to your family one last time? Do you become sad when you hear them chime “Don’t stay out too late!”? Do you go see that best friends you’ve had since kindergarten? The one you haven’t seen since that dreadful day in the garden? Or do you leave everyone to their devices, thinking that they won’t wonder where you are at all in the hours leading up to the fall?

The day you take your life, will you cry? Or will you be relieved you’re finally leaving this life of failed tries? Will you feel dread as you walk closer to the looming bridge that suddenly looks larger? Will you be scared,will all the feelings you hid start to gather?
The day you take your life as you stand at the edge of the bridge, do you hesitate before stepping off it? Do you scream? Do you regret it at all? Do you wish you’d rethought you’re decision in the hours leading up to the fall?
