alone in his room at night
sitting
darkness surrounding him
tears
rolling down his cheeks
phone
in his right hand he sends that last text
to every contact
on his phone
"so this is it
the end of the final chapter
the day
my story must end
I'm sorry for dragging you
all through this with me
but hey, it was fun while it lasted
right?
none of you are to blame
for the things
that will soon take place
I'm going somewhere better now
stay strong
I love you"
pressing send
he waits to see
just how long he can
withhold is misery
it's time to go
he says to himself
before picking up the pills
and the blade
and walking away
from his phone
which is now
ringing
frantically.
the texts were never answered.
