Sunset Suicide

I stand on this hill feeling tall and proud. I observe the view, its spectacular. Wow. The sun is setting behind hills of green. I climb higher as the cold air kisses my cheeks. I reach the peak while my mind continues its race. My heart beats so fast; I cant keep track of its pace. For so many years I have felt nothing but hurtful pain. Now I shall find peace in these tears falling like rain. This gun in my waistband gleams as I pull it out. I shout curses towards heaven as I shove it in my mouth. Has my life gotten so bad that I must end it soviolently? Not caring for the answer I pull the trigger silently.

I am 20 years old, fresh out of boot camp. Infantry for life, hooah.
