CANCER
(Edward)
I saw everybody around me turning away and saw my Isabella grabbing me water from the nurse.
She walked back quickly and raised the glass to my chapped and faded lips.
My Aunt Marie left the room with my dearest sister and I knew they were going to pack all of my things away before burying me.
I saw Bella's eyes so clearly.
My favorite color.
All of my sisters and brothers were crying so quietly.
Bella went for a kiss but I turned my head away.
"I can't, it'll make leaving so much harder."
She turned away as my body shivered, my hair completely gone.
The agony I was going through, I knew I wouldn't get to marry her.
My poor baby had to see me go through the chemo as it made me so soggy.
I had so very few days left.
"I'm sorry we never got the chance to live together."
I said hoping she knew that if she said goodbye today I would ask of her only to be true.
I began crying so softly.
"The hardest part is leaving you."
My body quaked and shivered one more time.
"That's the hardest part, is leaving you."
And I was gone with a tear in my eye and a slow beat of my heart.
