I want to tell you about dreams. The kind of dreams we wish upon stars for, that we spend our whole lives trying to achieve.....I had dreams once. There's this place I went to as a kid, Angel's point. A cliff that overlooks the ocean. I'd go there and make wishes upon the shooting stars. I'd make wishes for this picture perfect life.....This idealistic picture of what I thought life would be like as I aged. I had dreams of love, wealth, happiness. A marriage and the kids that go with that. You know, a normal loving family.....and this is where I ended up......alone and living in a damn box on the street. I have nothing. People walk by and look at me as if......as if I'm some kind of disease. A disease!..... I'm a damn disease and everyone's looking for the cure......and I've got it, I've got the cure.....and it's such an easy cure. You probably think I'm crazy right but why can't I...I mean Angel's point is where I dreamed of this great life.....why can't I end it there? Who'd miss me, right?....You?.........Anybody?......That's what I thought...
