Casket Monologue
“I am about to jump. I have planned it out completely. It is actually quite simple. all I do is put down the recorder and take one step forward. He can’t talk to me anymore if I am not here. I wonder what my family will say when they see what happened. Maybe they will be completely shocked or maybe they will expect that this would happen at some point. I wonder if they will get me a beautiful casket, wait what am I saying I don’t deserve a casket. They will probably cremate what they can scrape off of the concrete. Ugh I don’t even what to think about their expression when they come home. Well it is time for me to say my goodbyes. I still can’t believe that this is really going to happen.
“Mom this message is for you. I love you

You are such a beautiful girl, why would you do something so ugly?” She looked at her arm, they were stained a dark red. Then she looked into the mirror and said “Why do you hate me” in the faintest of voices. The voice replied ever so deeply “I don’t hate you. I hate the person you have become. You used to be so strong and independent, but now you are just a replica of your mother.” She looked in the mirror once again and repeated the words “I hate who I have become.” Until he stopped her with the simplest of words, “All you have to do is get rid of her, then you can be set free from her torments.” She screamed “I LOVE YOU” at the top of her lungs, then dug the knife into her wrist. Her whole world went black, but at least she didn’t have to hear his …show more content…
At first it seemed like a grand idea because the voice was gone, but it was the worst decision they have ever made. It wasn’t like some flash disaster but more as a horrible landslide that slowly killed her mind. “I don’t know what is happening to me, every day I feel worse and worse. He is talking again and I don’t know what to do. If I tell the doctors what is happening they will put me back in the hospital and throw away the key, because I won’t get better. Nothing I can do will make him go away, he is a part of me. Why is it that every time something good happens to me, he destroys it? I know that this is killing my mother slowly, but what am I to do? I try so hard to ignore him for the sake of my mother. His voice is so smooth and peaceful. Maybe I am not trying hard enough, and maybe it is better if I keep this to myself.” The recorder clicked, but this time it was different. It didn’t have some sort of emotional connection like it usually did, but it had a sort of sharpness that haunted her. She couldn’t believe it, all she heard was the sound of his voice whispering the same line that had been said far too many times before. “You must get rid of her. I love “, she cut him off before he could finish and she screamed “YOU DON’T LOVE ME AND YOU NEVER HAVE!” It was not enough though he screamed louder and louder until she fell as if she would die. She knew

    She whispered, “You’ll never know how much I love you”. As the person living on the child end of the parent-child relationship, it was wonderful to hear, even under the horrific conditions we found ourselves. It gives credence to that saying, “tell the people you love you love them because you’ll never know if you’ll ever get the chance again”.…

    When she sees herself in the mirror she feels disgusted by herself, saying that body, face, and lips are ugly. One time that she went shopping with her mom, as she was walking around the store looking for jeans that will fit her, she saw herself in a mirror she says that she only sees “ dirty hair and a dirty face, raccoon rings around her eyes” and she pushes her bitten, scabby lips against the mirror and wonders how it would feel if all her skin was fresh and new. She feels like all her skin has been destroyed by fire, and now she's forced to wander through the thorny bushes of her life, despised. Another example is when she was at her house and she look herself in the her bedroom mirror and as soon as she sees herself, she put it away in her closet and faced to the wall, so she wouldn’t see…

    I’m hopeless. I’m completely and utterly hopeless. I have nothing to look forward to at a school. At least on the farm I had friends and a family. I had a life… largely consisting of stealing from tourists that visit the vineyard. I need to find a way to turn this car around. That’s it! I’ll tell dad that I don’t want to go. He’ll respect my decision. But if he gets mad… shoot, last time he pulled out the belt. No, I better think of a slightly less painful idea. I can make up an excuse – No, that wouldn’t work. If only I wasn’t such a bad liar. In hindsight, if I were a better liar, I would have prevented many bad run-ins with the cops, and the worst run-ins that were near fatal, courtesy of dad. Yeah, he knows me in and out, too, so I can’t trick him. That would be suicide. I could call my friends… if I had a phone. Now I’ll never get to explain to them how I ended up in this mess. They’ll just remember me as the kid who became a goody two-shoes. They’ll never know that I won the contest for acceptance into a private school only because my Grandma wrote the application appeal. My family just doesn’t care that I don’t want to go to school. Why are they not giving me a fair say in the course of my life? They don’t know how good I am at sneaking and stealing. They don’t know how much money I could make if my friends and I took it to the next level. They just don’t understand what I’m trying to say because I’m not good with words. Maybe this school can help me, though. Maybe if I go sit in just the English and Literature class, I can fix this problem of mine. I’m already in the car, why stop now? Shoot, this car is a ’98 Corolla and is used for transporting a family of eight. Maybe this family needs a high school graduate. Maybe they’re actually depending on me. Man, if I just try a little to be a good student, I can make some honest money. Maybe my grandma just wanted to see someone become great. I have to this. I’ll have the best of both worlds…

    She isolates herself and minimized conversation from her own children because she is not ready to face the accident. It is obvious she is trying to disregard the past, but it is unconsciously causing an awkward relationship amongst the family. The casualty still haunts his mother resulting in her taking sleeping pills to help her get through the night. She must still have bad thoughts about the death which prevents her from sleeping at night. Without communication with her family, there is no way she would be able to relieve herself of that traumatic…

    You know how people say the truth hurts. When you lie you are shooting a bullet at the person you lie to. Your stabbing them in the back repeatedly. I guess I got too hung up on their good things I didn’t recognize the things they did wrong. She promised she would stop and that everything was going to be alright. She lied. She didn’t stop. They didn’t stop so somebody had to stop them. My mom, I love her because even though it feels right to hate her, I can’t, she gets to me every time. She changed, but not for the better. My mom transformed my trust towards people.…
