Analysis of Her Last Thoughts



Outside, the weather is cloudy and grey...just like her heart.

It begins to rain and she falls to her knees with an unbearable feeling of loneliness and hurt.

She looks at her reflection in the muddy creek water. All she sees is a sad woman, with the longing for someone to love her, mascara running down her face.
She thinks there is no way out.
Her emotions are bottled up inside the empty whiskey bottle from just hours before..

She throws the bottle out onto the water and with that, she falls forward, off of the bridge and into eternal sleep.
