suicide dream regret
You didn't want to die. Most mortals don't, even if they find themselves in as desolate and soul-destroying a spot as you.

They see at the end how much they've given up, how precious life is, even when it's treated them like dirt and crushed their dreams. Many think they've passed beyond hope, but they never really have, not until they pass beyond life itself. Alas, that knowledge comes too late for most would-be-suicides and they die with regret. Very few are offered the chance that you have been handed. Darren Shan
