Sheer Luck (or lack thereof)
Knife?
Check.
Suicide notes?
Check.
Determination?
Check, check, check.
I slide the knife into my chest, smiling.
Blood spills out onto my shirt
But I feel fine!
I wait, but I appear to have missed.
Slowly, I pull the now blood-coated knife out.
Oh well, second time's the charm.
I hear my name called before I can try again
And that's how I'm alive right now.
I was so close....*sigh
