from people regarding their own experiences with their mental health use breakthestigma on twitter to share yours trigger warning suicidal thoughts it took roughly twenty years and four months after hearing mmmbop for the first time before i got to see hanson live for the first time i had been among the millions of rabid fans as a teenager but while my love had softened as an adult it had never waned circumstances had continually kept me from seeing them and this time was no different tickets sold out in a stunning four hours after going on sale i d given up hope of ever seeing them or at least seeing them in the next several years yet fate smiled upon me and i managed to obtain a single ticket mere days before the show a very long drive a wait in line just as long as my drive and a small stampede later i was four rows away from the stage the show itself was everything i d imagined it to be it was a beautiful mix of both old and new from the earliest days to the latest album i teared up several times but one song hit me much harder than anticipated with you in your dreams was a hit from the day it was released with its mix of both childishly tender yet shockingly powerful lyrics about death i hadn t listened to it in two years whether by active or subconscious choice i cannot say by the opening line tears were rolling down my face if i m gone when you wake up please don t cry and if i m gone when you wake up it s not goodbye i was no longer visiting the carefree days of fourteen now i was sixteen alone in the darkness of some godforsaken hour i huddled beside my cd player sobbing as quietly as i could into a pillow as i tried to find any shred of courage i might possess i knew where my father kept his gun it was in his bottom desk drawer unlocked and always loaded everyone was asleep so i wouldn t get caught being awake and outside of my room i could slip upstairs and back again quiet as a mouse all of my pain would be over in a matter of minutes i just needed to find the courage to stand up and walk out of my bedroom through my tears taylor continued singing don t look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress remember me remember me cause i ll be with you in your dreams visions of my brothers danced in my head they were so young then too young to remember the pain of death several years before but old enough to feel the pain that comes in the aftermath of death they had not truly experienced loss yet they would mourn me but if i m gone when you wake up please don t cry and if i m gone when you wake up don t ask why don t look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress remember me remember me cause i ll be with you in your dreams i wondered if they would understand why i did it i wondered if they were old enough to realize how many aspects of our lives were cruel and inhumane did they remember life from before would they understand i wasn t strong enough to continue i wanted to be there for them but it was too much i kept the song on repeat losing myself in the lyrics it was a beautiful memento to leave behind for them maybe if they listened to it they would know i would always be with them i wasn t abandoning them i would always watch over them from beyond don t cry i m with you don t cry i m by your side don t cry i m with you don t cry i m by your side my reverie was interrupted at the concert my tears had evolved into body shaking sobs all at once every dark night i had ever had emerged at the forefront of my memory i was sixteen too afraid to get my father s gun i was nineteen but i didn t have enough pills to finish the job i was twenty too afraid to take the leap off the mountainside i was twenty two my hands shaking too hard to put the belt around my neck i was thirty deciding which barrier i could crash into at high speeds i was thirty two staring at the box that held my husband s gun knowing this time i wouldn t be too afraid if only i would decide to open it and though my flesh is gone i ll still be with you at all times and although my body s gone i ll be there to comfort you at all times the girl beside me placed a hand on my shoulder her face was gentle and concerned i couldn t hear her voice but the movements of her lips were unmistakable are you okay i don t want you to cry and weep i want you to go on living your life i m not sleeping an endless sleep cause in your heart you have all of our good times oh all of our good times i had no words of my own in spite of the many times i wanted to die i was alive i had lived through all the times i thought i couldn t survive i lived through my darkest days i was alive whether it was through strength or cowardice it didn t matter from that night in my room until the day i stood alongside this stranger i had lived i survived my worst enemy i survived my own self destruct button i couldn t find the words to tell this kind stranger just how much this moment meant to me even if i could there was no guarantee she would understand let alone appreciate this incredible occasion i was alive and if i m gone when you wake up don t ask why don t look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress remember me remember me cause i ll be with you in your dreams there will always be dark nights in my life i hope i will continue to have the strength to fight my way through them i hope that during those nights i will look back and remember how for one night being alive was a moment to be celebrated i want to remember how for one night i wept not in despair of life but with the indescribable happiness that i lived posted by lexcade at 12 00 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels break the stigma guest blog hanson mental

made his feelings known by suddenly kissing her while they happened to be on the same cruise not just any kiss but one that triggered a mind blowing heat that made her want to learn more about him they ve now been home for over a week where nothing happens making ava doubt the signals she thought she d received had the kiss not been as mind blowing for him as it was for her and then suddenly he asks her out on a date where she gets to see the intimate sexy sides of him which she really likes maybe they are a good match for each other after all or not she can t tell his actions are so unpredictable that she can t intuit his motives should she continue to leave the door open or write him off as the manwhore she thinks he is where you can buy it evernight publishing amazon barnes and noble ibooks kobo or add it to your shelf on goodreads excerpt thanks for dinner i had a great time i said it was trite but they were the only words that came to mind me too you re welcome he stood with his hands in his pockets and his head tilted that knowing look in his eyes the same one that at the office had always driven me the nuts but here in the semi darkness and privacy of the corridor it made me blush there was something in the intensity of his gaze that made my body prickle in response did he know how many confusing signals were firing inside me right now one side of me was greatly tempted to run my hands through his silver fox hair while another waved a red flag and tried to hit the brakes oh thanks for the coat i said i d almost forgotten about it i took it off and handed it to him um well goodnight see you at the office i started to close the door then stopped because he continued to stand there with the side of his mouth quirked up in a grin it would be awkward to just shut the door in his face what i said our gazes locked and my heartbeat sped up as static filled the air between us you re not just going to leave me like this john said like what he stepped forward to lean against the doorframe forearm up above his head his face inches from mine don t i even get a goodnight kiss he said in a low voice i hate to brag but i think i behaved pretty well tonight i laughed oh please you love to brag and yes you totally surprised me with your unexpectedly chivalrous behavior this however is more along the lines of what i expected i gestured at him from head to toe it was as if a tiger stood at my doorstep powerful muscles lithe yet still ready to pounce i had to admit it was deliciously arousing to feel his forthright desire i had a brief flashback of him by the pool on the cruise i d seen what the muscles of his torso were like and now i couldn t help wondering what they would feel like through the fabric of his shirt so no kiss he said are you sure because i thought there was something between us on the ship and even tonight i could swear it s still there aren t you just a little bit curious i shrugged maybe i am i really really am but i wasn t about to tell him that giving a manwhore leverage was just plain dangerous i m just not sure we should go there right now i remained where i was refusing to budge kissing john would be the wrong move right now something in my gut made me certain of it it was just one of those instincts that grew more honed with experience like a gazelle sensing a cheetah he continued to gaze at me with interest then he straightened but didn t move back how about a handshake then that s something you do with everyone so it s harmless right i laughed true i held out my hand and he grasped it i did my best to ignore how good his palm felt on mine as we shook i said again john i had a very nice time thank you that s all he would be getting from me tonight i stopped shaking his hand but he didn t release my fingers instead he raised my hand to his lips and kissed my knuckles then skimmed his lips in light nibbles down over my skin toward my wrist the short stubble on his jaw gently scraped as he went and that combined with the sensation of his firm soft lips made my stomach curl with heat it was so easy to imagine him trailing kisses like that all the way along my arm to my breasts not just there but even lower to the most private part of me his gaze flicked to my face and whatever he saw there made his eyes light up with satisfaction i didn t want to give anything away but i was helpless to control whatever i was revealing about the author restless by nature jewel quinlan is an avid traveler and has visited sixteen countries so far lover of ice cream beer and
