If I could lie here and look at you all night,

perhaps tomorrow won't come after all.

Please, my heart, just let me watch you sleep.

Let me remember you like this, peacefully resting,

let it comfort me when eternal rest hovers at my door.

And I can pretend I'll be forever dreaming of you.

I'm sorry if I had to leave.
I love you, my Edward.

Edward clutched the journal he'd found yesterday to his chest, trying not to fall apart; not again.
Waking up alone was almost unbearable, the thought of Jasper never waking up again too painful.
