A character reciting bad poetry (which is in some cases listed as being "by" a character who can't possibly have written it) and being really rude to her tour guide.

I can appreciate the writing to this story. If this was alluding to suicide, then I think I understood the story. If it wasn’t about that, I’m a bit lost. 😅

Assuming it was about suicide, I can feel the despair our main character was going through. She truly felt abandoned by her mother and felt this journey would bring her peace.
