"Ashton Sayeh was greedy and a liar. He took not one life but two. He ripped my soul away and took it with him, leaving me for dead. I hate him because he made me believe that hope existed in this world.

He made me believe that he and I could be something. He let me believe that he was capable of love. He made me believe that he was going to fix everything, just for me.

Because he loved me.
He doesn't. Or...he didn't.

He lied, he loved himself. Whatever pleased him he wanted and got.

And I hope he realizes how much I miss him. Growing up I always felt like something was missing from me but when I met him I felt complete again. I felt like me. The moments I had with him made me feel no longer like a big part of me was missing.

And if I had to do it all over again, just to see his face one more time...I would.

He won my heart and I just wasn't enough to even keep his beating.

I don't know what else to say. I'm sorry."

I clutch tightly his suicide note in my hands and walked down the podium and take my seat next to Mary.

Slowly, I unravel the note that I had stared at while speaking to his "loved ones".

Only hope can save us now.

- Ashton Sayeh

Except it didn't.
