She looks at him and takes his hand knowing the end is near.

She looks at him and takes his hand knowing the end is near.
She reaches up and wipes away the tears gently with her thumb.
She pulls him close never wanting to let him go.
But the choice is already made for her, so she holds him close.
She feels the tears fall, fall like rain as her body slowly dies in a midst of all her pain.
She looks into his eyes and mouths the words "I love you" as her eyes slowly close.
He takes her in his arms and pulls her near knowing the end is here.
He looks up to the sky as the tears fall.
Screaming to the heavens why?
Why her?
She had so much to live for, how will he go on when he needs her.
He bows his head and places it on her chest as she takes her final breath.
His name on her lips, his name in her mind.
Her love for him forever in her heart, till the end of time.
