Suicide occurs every day. In one way or another, it has touched us all.

Sometimes, it is done suddenly and unexpectedly.
Sometimes, suddenly and expectedly.
Sometimes, it is done slowly, over time.

No matter the how or the why — it leaves those left behind with many more questions than answers.

It leaves those left behind with grief.
It leaves those left behind with remorse.
It leaves those left behind with unimaginable, unending and undeserved guilt.

This story is dedicated to those who could no longer survive, and to those who remain behind, and have no choice but to do so.

For every one person who overcomes their demons, there are hundreds, if not thousands, who do not.....
This is one of their stories.....

Dear Reader,

"I'm a storyteller, an independent, self-published teller of tales, an author of scarcely any renown --- my stories will captivate you. I use the written word to tell tales. I am not a professional essayist nor English professor. My grammar is not always perfect and my sentence structure not always correct. To me, what is most important, all that is important, is the story."

As a storyteller, I know who I am, and with that persona, I am both confident and comfortable.

Additionally, a one-time candidate for congress, an educator and with greatest pride, a veteran (non-combat) of the United States Navy.

Thank you,

Joe

Wonderfully written story on such a sensitive topic. As with all of his stories, you feel like you're in the story.

5.0 out of 5 stars A visceral emotional journey
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 4, 2019

Joe Leonardi's "Damaged and Broken" series deals with pain and despair. In this, the third story, we meet a protagonist whose life has been marred by abuse, loss and pain. We follow him through several years, and the sense of cloying claustrophobia is so powerfully palpable that I literally found my own chest constricting. I felt immediate sympathy with the unnamed protagonist, and this is a testament to the author's writing which, while minimalist, is bruisingly effective. It's a heartbreaking read, difficult at times, but I thought that the protagonist's emotional journey was beautifully captured and the story stayed with me even after I had read the final sentence.
Powerful, and recommended.
