Regulus
~~~~~~
She was there when I closed my eyes. Standing right in front of me, smiling her beautiful smile, clear as day. Too clear. Because when I opened my eyes, she was gone.
She was there in my mind, in my head and in my heart.
There. There. There.
But it was only a figment of my imagination, a wish that was never going to come true.
I remember as a child I used to think that if I wished hard enough for something, I would get it.
If I wished hard enough my mother would not hurt me.
If I wished hard enough my brother would want to play with me instead of teasing me with his friends.
If I wished hard enough I would not have to hear my mother and brother argue, that we could be a happy family.
But I learnt that I had no time for wishful thinking. My mother showed me that soon enough.
But still, as I was standing here, I couldn't help but wish that she was with me.
Because she would always be everything to me.
My last thoughts would be of her.
The last whisper of breath to escape my lips will be her name.
And the last thing I hear will be her lilting voice, calling my name for the final time.
