Excerpt: After Words

“Once upon a time, Sleeping Beauty decided to take a nap from which she would never wake up.” – Rachel Cohn

There were times where I thought about killing myself. The many different ways I could kill myself. Perhaps with the kitchen knife? Or maybe hanging myself? Or possibly standing in the middle of the road, or rushing out when a car was coming? Then I thought of what everyone would have thought of my death. What their reactions would be. How their lives would be different without me. Everyday, I always thought of such things.
