I Knew You Were Dying

by CHOKE   Jul 8, 2005


I knew you were dying, I could see that your life was slipping away. I didn't want you to go so I prayed and prayed that you’d be okay. Little by little I felt your heartbeat fade. I felt so betrayed. There was nothing left that I could do for you. So, I just sat there screaming and crying for you. I put one finger over your slow beating heart. I felt your body and soul part. I started to scream and cry a little louder. I just want you to know that you couldn’t have made me prouder. At that moment I just silently sat there and cried. For right then I knew you had died. I tried to tell myself you were just sleeping, but I knew that you were gone and you were never coming back.
