I look at her now, sick and frail with age and just as beautiful as she was at seventeen. There are mere moments left, before she sleeps the last sleep.
I know that we were born to experience this. Death. Finality.
"Time's almost up," she whispers.
I know. I curse it.
Not yet, please. I need her still.
But time, like sand, like her, keeps slipping through my fingers.
"Promise me," she begs.
But I can't promise. I won't.
Instead I kiss her gently and watch her eyes close one last time.
"Until we meet again, love."
A/N: This was my first thought when I saw the prompt. What do you think?
