With teary eyes you gazed at the now lifeless body of your beloved. You were granted one final moment with him. His skin was so pale, so cold. Your body shuddered at the touch of him. Taking his cool hand within your warm one, you still couldn't believe it was he who was in front of you unmoving. Were you really never going to feel his warm touch on your skin again? The thought alone caused a flow of tears to escape your dreary eyes, each one falling onto his cold, pale skin.
"Eisuke...Don't you know I still need you...? You can't just leave me...you can't..." You vigorously shook your head as you sobbed throwing yourself against his now still chest. There was no heartbeat, there was nothing but silence. It only further proved he was no longer living. Oh how you wished you could have been at his side during his final moments. When he breathed his final breath. To know he died having forgotten you was still so unbelievably unbearable. You laid there holding him, completely broken, only half of what you used to be. "I'm pregnant you know...with our children. Twins they say. ...Am I really meant to raise them alone? ...They need their father. I need you..." your sobs muffled against his still chest. "I'm so so sorry... If only I knew you were going to propose to me... none of this..." Your voice was carried off with the silent air, only your cries could be heard as they got even harder as you held him. Regret washed over you, it was something that would haunt you for the rest of your life. Your mind filled with 'What If'...What if you just listened to him from the start, would he still be alive and breathing, smiling at you this very moment, holding you in his arms, saying he loved you?
You wanted to treasure your final moments with your dearest love, be he dead or alive, you knew soon you would have to say goodbye forever, these last moments were all you had left with him. The times you both shared in life was all but too short. What you would have given to spend at least another day with him, telling him just how much he meant to you. How you loved and needed him. You wished he would simply wake up and this had all just been but a terrible nightmare. He was so tragically torn apart from you, it all really did seem so surreal and yet his lifeless body before you showed no lie. This was real. You wished for so much and yet you knew each one of your wishes would forever go unanswered, impossible to grant.
You promised you would never forget him, not for as long as you lived. He would always be alive within your heart. Your heart would be eternally bound to his. And nothing would ever break that.
