“I won't be alive so I won't care who finds me.”

“You won't know until it's over. You won't find me in time.”

“No one else knows I'm alive, which means they won't notice when I'm gone.”

“What will I become? Because I won't be me any longer. That will be a relief. I dont want to be the helpless person I've always been.”

“Like anyone cared where I was, or who I was.”

“Who will see you through the darkness? "Me," I key in the answer. "I'll find my own way.”

“His invitation lingers. So does my question. Why me? I don't know the answer. When I look at myself in the mirror, all I see is a starving, stunted bird who never grew wings and lost all reason to sing.”
