Another short fiction by me. Lady in Between is a single mother of four that lost her husband to suicide. Here we can witness her internal dialogue as she sits on her front porch looking at her kids playing on the lawn. I hope that none of you will ever have to go through a suicide of a loved one.
This story is mused by someone I know, someone I view as one of the strongest women on earth.
This and others’ of my stories and poems are also available on YouTube, Spotify etc. as audiobooks. Come and follow me there to get instantly notified when I add new stories or poetry.
I have never written about my suicide attempt publicly or discussed it with those closest to me. Perhaps I should have, maybe it would have made healing a little bit faster.

To the eyes of others, everything seemed to be fine. It was a direct effect of the depression that I was fighting alone, not because I had to but because I chose to.
Am truly lucky to have survived and I have my loved ones to thank for that.
