Can you please stay with me,
And wait until the end.
We can get through this together,
And more time with you I can spend.
Come on,
We can get through this as a pair.
Although it's currently hard for you,
Your pain, we can share.
Secretly I feared,
That her story wouldn't have a happy ending.
But I couldn't let on my worries,
So I had to keep pretending.
No amount of time spent with her,
Was ever enough for me.
For I never knew,
When I would finally be without thee.
Although it would be a privilege,
To die next to you.
We wouldn't have to:
We would get through this together- that, I knew.
So Evelyn,
I really want you to know.
Please, for me,
Hold on, so.
