I lay sobbing
My chest is throbbing
The door opens
I turn to see
One of the therapists handing me a note
He said it was for me
"Dear Holland
If you're reading this my time has come
To whether you knew or not
I'm sorry it came to this
Mother would've been proud of you
I am a monster
A killer
I want to set you free knowing the truth
Death was inevitable
Don't let the darkness infect you"
Tears ran down my face
And ripped up the note
I was finally setting myself free
