She buried herself on my chest
And
Through tired, foggy eyes, stared into mine
Reading my expression effortlessly
Pure terror.
They said it was her kidneys, that, tired and tattered, could no longer keep up.
I kissed the crown of her head and brushed her cheeks softly.
Sharp pain ran through her tiny body and exited her mouth in a howl.
Call the doctor.
Just like that it was over.
Vanished.
Never to be seen again.
I am not one to pray. But now I'm shouting at the heavens
OH GOD, PLEASE
GIVE HER BACK
UNDERSTAND
*She's just a child

This is for you. Just yesterday, you went away. I wish I could give you a better poem but Im not a great writer. I'm sorry, I'm losing my mind. I love you so much. And I will never stop loving you and when my time comes, I hope to see you waiting for me, so we can be reunited. Never to be separated again.
