"I'm going to commit suicide..." she said. "What?" was the murmur from the assembled crowd.
She began to tremble.
"I can't do it anymore. I.....don't know ANYTHING! I don't know how I got here...wherever here is. I just....was..."
"Come on now honey..." the one closest to her started. "Stop that nonsense."
The trembling became more of a sway...back and forth.
tick.....tock....
"I just feel like....I have to go. I HAVE to leave this place.....make a sacrifice."
Just then, the sky opened. The beam of light shone on her.
"See......it's for me! It's my time....."
A great sigh permiated the air as she was lifted.
The sacrifice...made.
She rolled down my face....that single tear......and helped my soul to heal.
