Elizabeth,

I can feel death on my door. I can feel it on my neck, in my room, and I can always hear it following me. I wished to speak with you before I die, but death surrounds me, and it is unbearable. I know you wish not to see my face, but I wish you could spare me one last kiss, one hug, or even just a glance. Please let me hold you once more.
