She was drowning in an ocean full of broken diamonds;
each shard sharper than the other
cutting into her creamy skin and filling the ocean blue
with a velvet red
But she didn't feel anything,
her body was paralyzed by fear and her lungs exhausted
Yet she wasn't thinking of how young she was
Or all of her hard work
She wasn't praying like she thought she would do in her final moments
because there was something more important than all of that to her
She didn't care what her funeral would look like
Nor what the tombstone would read
She didn't care that she probably had a minute or two to live
In her final moments all she was thinking was
Will you remember me?
Some things fall apart and can't be put back together
Don't let them destroy you, you're better than that
I'm sorry I broke our promise
It wasn't your fault
I never told you, but yes, you are beautiful.
I love you
She had drowned in an ocean full of broken diamonds;
*his eyes were the sharpest, and cut her the deepest
