I’ll never forget and I’ll never regret

I know for a fact that I would not be alive today if I would have kept it, but it was the hardest decision of my life. From slitting my wrists, to having to walk past the people outside with the signs; I’ll never forget the days I prepared myself. I remember the pills they had me take, and running to the bathroom while throwing up in my hands. The bleeding and cramping that came after, and the hostility from the people I loved that didn’t agree. We all have our story, our chapters, and our footnotes. I’m a person just like you and everyone you love who only wanted to decide her body for herself.
