I’m afraid of your ultimate death
So young of age, life ending too soon
The last words you say under your breath
For eternity, in my mind they’ll loom
I’m afraid I will never see you again
Not being able to see your beautiful face
I can imagine you now, sick and in pain
As I sit here, worrying in a different place
I’m afraid of living my long life without you
As I don’t know how I will be able to stay strong
My life will be beaten, marked with black and blue
I thought we’d live long, but apparently I was wrong
I’ll be afraid to love someone else in the coming years
Because I’ll be afraid of losing the others I love as well
But all I can do right now is hope and hold back these tears
I’m afraid to live life after your gone, as you certainly can tell
I'm 16, and my girlfriend (also 16) is dying because of cancer. Now, just imagine you, those reading this, in this situation. The person that you love is dying and you can't do anything to stop it. Take how you would imagine you would feel, and multiply it by lets say 5. That's how I feel. And I can't do anything to help her other than talk her through everything. Still, I'm afraid of what is going to happen. I don't want it to happen but there is no way to stop it now. 2-8 months of her life left... :(

Anyway, thanks for reading.
