The Mirror shattered as it hit the ground.

 

I had thrown it.

 

I didn't like what I saw when I looked in it.

 

The world kept on going, as I fell to the ground.

 

I was sad.

 

I was scared.

 

I was disappointed in myself.

 

Why did I trust him?

 

I didn't want to be here.

 

Tears fell from my eyes, as I sat on the ground.

 

I am not good enough.

 

It couldn't get any worse than this right?,right?

 

I guess I thought to soon.

 

It started raining,not a light drizzle it was poring. 

 

It reminded me of a song.

 

I started singing it.

 

I can't sleep tonight

Everybody's saying everything is alright

Still I can't close my eyes

I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights

Sunny days, where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

 

My voice was quiet, like a whisper.

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

 

I can't stand myself

I'm being held up by invisible men

Still life on a shelf when

I've got my mind on something else

Sunny days, oh, where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

 

Oh, where did the blue sky go?

Oh why is it raining so?

It's so cold

 

I can't sleep tonight

Everybody's saying everything is alright

Still I can't close my eyes

I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights

Sunny days, oh, where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

 

Oh, where did the blue sky go?

And why is it raining so?

It's so cold

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

Why does it always rain on me?

Why does it always rain on, on

 

I felt like I related to the song.

 

I don't know how long I stayed there, it could of been,minutes,hours or days, I just didn't know.

 

When the sun started to rise I knew my time was coming to a close.

 

I didn't want to live anymore.

 

I walked over to the cliff.

 

I saw him.

 

I saw her.

 

I saw them.

 

They started running towards me.

 

I smiled.

 

A real one, the first real one I had smiled for a while.

 

I walked closer to the edge.

 

I was one step away from falling now.

 

I heard them scream stop.

 

I didn't care.

 

The pain was finally gonna stop.

 

I closed my eyes.

 

And fell backwards off the cliff.

 

The pain would finally stop.

 

I fell, and fell.

 

I hit the snow.

 

I didn't see the snow around me turning red.

 

But they did.

 

I didn't hear them screaming for me.

 

Or calling 911 to try keep me alive.

 

I just wanted to die.

 

I didn't hear the paramedics trying to keep me alive.

 

I felt it though.

 

I fought against it.

 

I didn't hear them crying.

 

But they were.

 

The light was fading.

 

They knew I wasn't coming back.

 

We all knew.

 

I walked into to the darkness.

 

A light came.

 

A solemn figure came out.

 

''Come Child'' as they held their hand out to me.

 

The pain would finally stop.

 

At least for me.

 

Not those who knew me.

 

Cared for me.

 

Loved me.

 

For them the pain would never stop.

 

Even those who didn't know me felt pain.

 

But he,

 

The one that ruined me.

 

He wouldn't feel pain.

 

He would feel something worse than pain.

 

Guilt.

 

The ones that loved me.

 

Tried to save me.

 

But the one that really saved me.

 

Was the one who took me away from the pain.

 

The solemn figure saved me.
