Summary: Sarah went through hell trying to let go of Johnny. Song Fic to Evanescence song My Immortal.
Evanescence – My Immortal
I'm so tired of being here
Sarah walked into the long-term intensive care unit again
Suppressed by all my childish fears
She looked at her boyfriend, Johnny on the bed unconscious, again
And if you have to leave
Part of her wondered what would happen if he woke up
I wish that you would just leave
Part of her wished he would just move on.
Because your presence still lingers here
Because he was still there, in that bed,
And it won't leave me alone
And it tore her to pieces to see him like that.
These wounds won't seem to heal
Her heart ached for him to be ok
This pain is just too real
The respirator whirred, a noise she hated
There's just too much that time cannot erase
Her belly grew with the child he didn't know existed
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
Sarah wiped a tear from his eye, his tear ducts continued to function even as he didn't
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
A sob choked in her throat
And I held your hand through all of these years
She gripped his hand and willed him to wake up
But you still have all of me
In vain
You used to captivate me by your resonating life
Sara walked into the hospital the next day, remembering one of Johnny's jokes.
Now I'm bound by all the life you left behind
She turned into the room to see that depressing still form.
Your face it haunts
That same face she dreamt was smiling lay slack
My once pleasant dreams
Each night every memory was agony
Your voice it chased away
She struggled to remember the exact pitch of his voice
All the sanity in me
It depressed her so much, she cried, not for the first or last time
These wounds won't seem to heal
How long had he been in a coma for now?
This pain is just too real
She couldn't remember, but he was still there
There's just too much that time cannot erase
She wasn't sure she could care for this child alone
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
Another unneeded tear crept across his face
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
Tears threatened to stain her cheeks too
And I held your hand through all of these years
She squeezed his hand and got up to get a coffee
But you still have all of me
Doubting that he'd ever wake up
I tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
She tried to convince herself Johnny was gone, she should date Walt
But though you're still with me
Part of her argued Johnny was still there, What would he think?
I've been alone all along
Another part argued Johnny was gone and couldn't care.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tearsShe entered the room one last time and wiped one last tear.
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
Walt had proposed, yet she still wished Johnny would wake up
And I held your hand through all of these years
She picked up his hand, thinking it was over, he was long gone,
But you still have all of me
The next day she smiled up at Walt and said 'I Do'
