Continue below to read the full story behind this quote and this piece.
It was first love, a man and a woman one night long ago in their youth under the dim lights of the bar. Both run aways coming both from horrible circumstances she felt they had a special bond. Drunk and chatting late into the night at the bar, the couple decided to stay for a night at a nearby motel after. That night the intoxication and lust took full throttle without a worry in the world. The aftermath of this night left the woman unknowingly pregnant. Unlike most men, though sort of aggressive seemed to treat her right, but most of all made her feel good. One day many months later she discovered she was pregnant and couldn't believe it. The man sort of noticed but oddly just waited, to figure out why she was silent the last few months. Telling him about it late, he assumed that she knew the whole time and was hiding possibly cause it must've been from another man. They then got into a vicious argument snapping wildly at each other. During this he revealed his unfaithfulness to her, she was shocked and so worked up she lunged at him with a kitchen knife. In response he broke a nearby bottle over her head, knocking her out as he stormed out of their apartment.

He then cut all ties with this woman to pursue another woman. He vanished without a trace unwilling to even talk to her due to fear of her wild tendencies. Shocked by what happened and more than halfway through the pregnancy she was left alone. This a feeling that felt all to familiar from her past, bringing back terrible memories of how her parents became separated. How she took extreme abuse from them after knowing their secrets physically, emotionally, and even sexually just to keep them together. Until she one day revealed these secrets and then after they parted, was left alone. It became the overbearing thought in her mind and she cursed this man as much as her parents. This sinking her into a state of hatred and neglect. She couldn't care less anymore and started to drink again hoping to miscarriage the baby feeling poisoned by his seed. Though regardless of what the she did she eventually gave birth to a daughter. Due to the mother's eraddict habits during pregnancy the daughter was born with severe autism. Though spiteful the mother did care for the daughter in the beginning. But as the daughter grew older, things changed for the worst as the daughter grew to look more and more like her father. At this point of time the mother was battling a horrible drug addiction and was at her lowest point, developing a schizophrenia that started small but only grew worse untreated...

The daughter could never understand her mother's hatred. Though she couldn't express herself properly and was always silent the daughter always thought about her situation . Thinking “ Why does mommy ignored me, why mommy would push me away when I try to hug her, why does mommy forget to feed me, why after mommy takes pills or shoots up she beats me calling me another name, why do I sleep on the floor and not with mommy, why does mommy leave me with mysterious men, why does she watch them touch me, why does she threaten to kill me, why is she so sad...”. The mother plotted to get rid of her, figuring she would be able to stage an accident in which the daughter finds and over doses on drugs blaming it on the autism. In a pitch black state of mind the mother thought that after her daughter was gone she'd be free to live as a new person, free of sin as she believed she was a victim and her daughter was a devil planted by her cursed father. These drug induced deluded thoughts fueled her her plan. One day the mother started acting oddly nice to the daughter. Even through all the daughter has been through the daughter was surprised and couldn't help to be excited. She started howling and jumping up and down as her mother approached her seemingly to give a hug, a loving gesture the daughter had yet to experience. Instead the mother subdued her jamming a bunch of different drugs into her daughters mouth.The mother manically celebrated, dancing around the room yelling that she had slayed the devil while her own daughter laid there convulsing dying of an overdose. In her last moments the daughter's life did not flash in front of her eyes nor did she see the light, instead she was visited, it shown her what could've been, she then desired what it offered...

The mother began to swiftly start cleaning out and apartment and disposing of all incriminating evidence before calling the police and playing into her ploy pretending to be overwhelmed by the sudden loss of her daughter. The police and investigators knew something was wrong so they planned to return the next day for further investigation, taking away the lifeless body of the daughter. The mother thought she had won and went out to celebrate shooting up for one last time in her favorite spot. She shot up more than she should have, and after a brief nap of sorts found herself stumbling home in a daze. Something seemed different after she shot up, not like a usual high but her surrounding seemed much dimmer and the streets empty. A dark ambiance rung in her ears, she believed something must've gotten mixed up in the drugs and this must've been a bad trip. There was an overbearing feeling of dread as she opened the apartment door... The apartment was reverted back to its messiest of states, darker than usual and coated in an ominous fog. Suddenly a black stain appeared in the middle of the floor, melting through the floor and creating a hole. The mother back stepped confused and frightened. A faint distorted shrieking echo grew louder as something was emerging from the black pit. What emerged threw the mother in absolute shock, absolute horror, absolute terror... Choking the mother and bringing her down into the black. Why was she down there, why was she down there, what has she become. Both once neglected, their resolution could only be found, together... In the abyss...
