Pain.
That was the only thing she felt as the frigid water pulled her beneath the surface. The water stung her nose and throat. She could feel the escalating pressure of the water as she sank deeper and deeper. Her lungs burned as she took a desperate breath, her airways flooding with water.
She had never been afraid of drowning, but now she was beginning to reconsider her decision.
She had thought that drowning would be the easiest way to go, the easiest way to stop the emotional pain from toying with her mind. She suddenly didn't want this anymore. It hurt her more than the stupid depression.
She tried to thrash her arms.
She tried to kick her legs.
She wanted to stop sinking and magically float up to the surface.
Her conscious mind slipped away from her body. A new darkness made its way in. She felt numb. She couldn't think, feel... move. Her eyes drifted shut and she knew the pain would finally be gone. Forever.
