Last Moment

Although it has been many years that we have been together, I didn’t think that you would leave me this early. Why did you have to develop something incurable…? Why does God have to take you away from me?

Recently I couldn’t be happy, because I knew the day for you to go would come sooner or later, but you always smiled at me and told me to live for your last moments and to never regret anything. You told me many times, but I don’t think I can hold onto those words and I’m just here wasting every bit of our time. I wish I could keep holding on to you and to never let go, I wish we could live together till the day where we can both fade together but what I wish mostly was that God should have picked me instead of you, so that I could watch over you instead of being unable to.

The time is short and soon, you will be gone from my sight. We were lying on the bed, looking at each other’s eyes. “Why is it that every time I look into your eyes, you always make me, want to cry?” I said.

“Because sooner or later, you would not be able to see me again, but that doesn’t mean I won’t be by your side.” He said with a smile and kissed me on the forehead.

He held me tight, with his arms wrapped around me. I could feel his breath near my ear. I could hear his heart beating, knowing that he is still alive and near me, makes me feel secure. I could feel the warmth spreading throughout my body.

Morning came, I woke up within his arms, hearing no heart beat and feeling no air through his mouth. I started to shake in fear, I held him tight, and his arms loosened. I grabbed onto his shirt tightly while clenching my teeth, so I wouldn’t cry, but I just couldn’t hold in my tears. As I closed my eyes, I screamed in agony and tears rolled down my face.

Thank you for everything that you have given me.
