One foot in front of the other, counting tiles on the floor so I don't have to focus the blur of painted smiles, fake faces.

Too much to take in, too much to purge. Why must every memory, once sweet, dead end in such ugliness?

the not-so-bookish librarian was half angel, half she-devil, so sayeth the rumor mill.

Face red, but brave in spite of it, Ethan offered an even smaller box. My hands shook as i opened it.

Set in a gold promise ring, three small diamonds glittered. One for you, one for me, one for us, he said sweetly. I love you.

You can have your pick of pretty women. Why me?
You're like the ocean, Pattyn. Pretty enough on the surface, but dive down into your depths, you'll find beauty most people never see. Lucky me. I fell in, headfirst.

My life is over.
My one forever love has
been snatched away,
condemned by my own
father's rules to die,
just because he loved me.

I am without a home,
without a single person to love.
And after having
discovered love, lived for a short
while surrounded by love,
that is to much to bear.

I am a pariah, at church,
at school. The few people
I once called friends have
betrayed me and caused
the death of my husband,
our innocent child.

And so they should die too.
All of them. Dad. Bishop
Crandall. Trevor, Becca, Emily.
With the pull of a 10mm hair
trigger, their lives will end at sacrament meeting.
Such lovely irony!

And when I finish there,
I'll hide in the desert,
reload, and go in search
of Carmen and Tiffany,
who started the rumors.
And Derek, just because.

Heart Breaking,
I think that if Dad, staring down the sight of a 10mm,
would only tell me he loves me,

I could easily change my mind...

...but he won't.

Can a dream be wrong? Aren't dreams God's way of telling you things?

Act
on your impulse,
swallow the bottle,
cut a little deeper,
put the gun to your chest.
