I close my eyes.

How am I to celebrate the day I was given life when my soul longs to rest in the water below?

I lean back against the steel-blue structure and am immediately numbed by the sheer cold of it. I am thankful.

I know there are people walking, laughing, talking, joking, back and forth behind me, but I hear nothing. Sweet silence. Dead silence.

I waste no time as I spread my arms and let myself fall into nothingness. The fall is as a feather being dropped. The landing is as falling into a pillow. The icy, cold water soothes as it slows my heart. Finally. I smile as my body succumbs to its death.

I open my eyes to smiles and laughter. Balloons and streamers. Cupcakes and ice cream. Presents and cards filled with love.

All I want is to close my eyes again.
