The Suicide Note – Short Horror Story

After writing this document, I will send it up to be stored in the international space station. I am certain that it will be one of the few places still standing after this whole event is over. Odds are nobody will ever read this except for the astronauts currently on board.

I am not sure why I am even writing this. Perhaphs it's the pathetic, needless, slavery put on me by my wants. I want to be heard. I want to explain myself. I want to think that this is not an act of irrationality.

At approximately, 07:32, the largest warhead in the United States of America will launch towards Russia. This is not a declaration of war by the USA, but rather an individual act which will spell the end of the human race.

I considered simply killing myself and being done with it, but that would not be right to my overwhelming disgust against the human race. This emotion is not caused by a fragment of my childhood or by a horrifying injustice which has been done to me. I’ve lived a rather normal life. My father worked late, and I rarely got to see him. My mother was constantly working around the house, trying to manage her stress. My siblings were normal. I never starved, nor was I ever bullied or fell into the terrible state of being a social outcast. For all intents and purposes, I was a normal, regular child.

I have realized that the self-propagated illusion we call morality is nothing more than willful delusion. None of us have the slightest control over ourselves. Vows are as meaningless as puffing air into the world. The difference between a loyal wife, and a cheap slut in the alley, is one of circumstance and nothing else. We are mere puppets of meat strangled along by the wires of fate.

There is no place for genuinity in this world. Even in our most truthful moments, we are lying to ourselves. Truth doesn’t exist because no human holds it dear and truly values it. It is a most disgusting thing to hear that they do. It is nothing but lies and pain. At the core, humans are as vile as insects, and their claims to rationality and sapience are nothing but gesture.

That act in itself is vile. To be low like the dirt, and filthy, yet claim to be heavenly, a creature of god, is one of such immense egoism, my heart clenches in disgust each time I think of it.

Humans are vile, and this earth must be rid of them.

The flashes 07:32 and I heard the sound of a rocket flying into the sky in the background.

Soon. Soon this will all be over, and we’ll all be dead.
