Going Under

I want you to write a story about suicide. It could be a true story, a fiction, in the point of veiw of the person who is committing it, in the family's point of view, the aftermath of the event.... ect. Be creative. I don't want some cliche slit-my-wrists-in-a-bath-tub crap. Use your imagination!

And make me cry. Seriously I want to cry more than I've ever cried before. I want you to write the saddest story you've ever written.

Ok now, RULES:
1. No erotica. I'm 14, I already have bad enough images in my head I don't need more.

2. Swearing is allowed, swear all you want just not the horrible, horrible words.

3. No bashing any religion, race, God, person, culture, ect. If I see even one little scrap of proof that insists you're bashing the you're ass is getting DQed.

4. Poetry and lyrics are allowed

5. Rule number 5 can't take my rules anymore so it went and jumped off my computer desk.

6. It has to be over 200 words.

7. There is no word limit, however, I don't want to read a novel.

8. Grammar counts. Just make sure I can read it and you'll be fine.

If you can find a song that matches your story or you think does then you may put the link or song title in the author's note, but you don't have to do it.

You can be expecting a comment on every story. I enjoy commenting.

Remember to make me cry!
