The Only Way Out

I open the cupboard

they're sitting there

in front of me

waiting for me

calling out my name

i grab them

hold them in my hand

and think

will they miss me?

will i be remembered?

i search my head

but i can not find the answers to these questions

so i open it

i pour them into my hand

i look at them

thinking

is this the right thing to do?

my brain says yes

but my gut says no

i go by what my brain says

i take one

then another

and i keep going

until the bottle is empty

my past flashes before my eyes

i see everyone who loved me

everyone who once cared

they wont have to worry anymore

cause i will be gone soon enough

my eyes begin to slowly shut

my legs start to tingle

then my body goes numb

i see the light

it comes closer and closer

my heart slows down

and my breathing begins to stop

im gone

and everyone is happy now.
