Dedicated to my loyal trio: Sanskrit, DarkJediQueen, and Read300300! You're all fantastic!
Life. Life in her. In Sara. Stomach swollen, green eyes brilliant with joy. Life. In her. Your wife, the one you love so much.
Life. Life in your son, Charlie. Eyes bright, hair warm and soft. Life. In him. Always.
Life blood from him pooling on the floor. Making the patterns you never thought you would see in your house. Life draining out of you. Out of you, and out of your son.
Life. Life, in HIM. In the soft, Abydos-tanned skin, in the warm blue eyes looking at you, shining. Soft chestnut hair, that smells of deserts, dust, a hot sun, and old books.
Life is in the blood dripping out of the knife cut in your side, so deep, so very, very deep, spilling on Daniel's gentle, worried hands on your face. Life is in his tears falling to the ground.
Life is in Daniel's eyes, the ones that are closed, with clear, hot liquid spilling from them. Life is in the hand you use to brush them away.
Life is him, and life is you. Life is the two of you. Life is in his soft lips brushing against your forehead.
Then you close your eyes. And now he is the only one with life in him.
