Darkness Quote by Anonymous
“When you feel consumed by darkness... the disconnect from yourself and everyone in your life has come to the point where you can see the real possibility of ...ending it all...think again. Death is easy for the individual, but it is like putting a bomb in the middle of all the people you love and care about. You will rip apart and destroy the lives of those you leave behind young and old, with questions that will go unanswered and fester and leave a new legacy of emptiness and pain for someone else to bare in your name.”
