"Emma Swan was an amazing wife. She was so selfless. Sure, we had our petty fights. But we always made it through. She was determined to help me.. And I guess things aren't always supposed to work out." Regina Swan, Emma Swan's wife, told us. Emma Swan died in an attempt to help her dying wife. She went in to donate a kidney and cells from her stomach lining. Sadly, she died on the operating table when her kidneys and pancreas ruptured. The doctors did all they could to save her, but it wasn't enough. "Before her surgery, she told me that she would always love me, no matter what. I think she had prepared herself to die. And the fact that she... Died for me... That's the scariest part. She loved me enough to die for me... And I would do the same." She informed us. Emma Swan died at 6:43 am, March 2nd, on the operating table.
I had tears falling down my cheeks as I read the article. I scrolled to the next article and prepared myself for even more heartbreak.
6:43 pm, March 7th.
"She was amazing. She truly was. She loved Emma so fiercely and intensely that there was never a question about them getting married. I knew it from day 1. Even when I was on the receiving end of her love.. It wasn't the same. Regina loved Emma so so much. They were so passionate about each other. They couldn't live without each other." Cara Delevingne tells us. "They were amazing moms. I loved them both so much. As did Maggie. We were so lucky to be adopted by them. And of course we miss them. They were our moms. They are our moms. Nothing will change that." The Swan's son Jared told us. Regina Swan died at 6:43 pm, March 7th of a rare type of cancer. But close friend, Belle Lucas, tells us that she knows it was because she couldn't live without Emma. Simply because Emma had her heart. Our love goes out to all of Emma and Regina's family and friends in their time of great loss.
I rubbed the tears from my eyes and I shook my head. 10 years, Maggie. It's been 10 years. No matter how long has passed, it will still feel like it did on that day. I miss them both so so much. But, they will always live on in my heart. They're my moms. Forever. I put my phone down and took some deep breaths. Im a musician now like ma. I picked up her guitar and looked up. The recording agent nodded and I started playing. "Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la

You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
You'd hold me close in your arms

I loved the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm living out my dream
Oh how I wish you could see
Everything that's happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying by too fast

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

I know you're in a better place, yeah
But I wish that I could see your face, oh
I know you're where you need to be
Even though it's not here with me

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you." I finished singing and looked up. He smiled before nodding. "Alright Mags. Ready for the next song?" He asked. I nodded. This is a song ma wrote and recorded about me shortly before she died. I started playing before getting choked up. I had to stop. "S-sorry Adam." I croaked out. He shook his head. "It's okay kid." He said. I nodded and took a few deep breaths. Today's March 7th. 10 years ago today, mom died. I started playing the song again and took a few deep breaths before starting to sing. "
I wasn't there the moment
You first learned to breathe
But I'm on my way, on my way
I wasn't there the moment
You got off your knees
But I'm on my way, on my way

Lay down
And come alive in all you've found, All you're meant to be
For now
Wait until the morning light
Close our eyes to see
Just close your eyes to see

A tear must have formed in my eye
When you had your first kiss
But I'm on my way, on my way
So leave a space deep inside for everything I'll miss
Cause I'm on my way, on my way

Lay down
And come alive in all you've found
All you're meant to be
For now
Wait until the morning light
Close our eyes to see
Just close your eyes to see

And when you feel no saving grace
Well I'm on my way, on my way
And when you're bound to second place
Well I'm on my way, on my way
So don't believe it's all in vain
Cause I'm on my way, on my way
The light at the end is worth the pain
Cause I'm on my way, on my way

I'll be there the moment
You come out in white
Cause I'm on my way, on my way." I wiped my tears as I finished. "Alright. Next one?" He asked. I nodded and took a sip of water. The next song is called Will You Be There and it has a spoken part in it. It's beautiful. I started playing and quickly got lost in it. "
Hold Me
Like The River Jordan
And I Will Then Say To Thee
You Are My Friend

Carry Me
Like You Are My Brother
Love Me Like A Mother
Will You Be There?

Weary
Tell Me Will You Hold Me
When Wrong, Will You Scold Me
When Lost Will You Find Me?

But They Told Me
A Man Should Be Faithful
And Walk When Not Able
And Fight Till The End
But I'm Only Human

Everyone's Taking Control Of Me
Seems That The World's
Got A Role For Me
I'm So Confused
Will You Show To Me
You'll Be There For Me
And Care Enough To Bear Me

(Hold Me)
(Lay Your Head Lowly)
(Softly Then Boldly)
(Carry Me There)

I'm only human!

(Lead Me)

Hold me.

(Love Me And Feed Me)
(Kiss Me And Free Me)
(I Will Feel Blessed)

(Carry)
(Carry Me Boldly)
(Lift Me Up Slowly)
(Carry Me There)

(Save Me)
(Heal Me And Bathe Me)
(Softly You Say To Me)
(I Will Be There)

(Lift Me)
(Lift Me Up Slowly)
(Carry Me Boldly)
(Show Me You Care)

(Hold Me)
(Lay Your Head Lowly)
(Softly Then Boldly)
(Carry Me There)

Will you be there?

(Need Me)
(Love Me And Feed Me)
(Kiss Me And Free Me)
(I Will Feel Blessed)

[Spoken]
In Our Darkest Hour
In My Deepest Despair
Will You Still Care?
Will You Be There?
In My Trials
And My Tribulations
Through Our Doubts
And Frustrations
In My Violence
In My Turbulence
Through My Fear
And My Confessions
In My Anguish And My Pain
Through My Joy And My Sorrow
In The Promise Of Another Tomorrow
I'll Never Let You Part
For You're Always In My Heart." I finished and smiled. "Beautiful Mags! You have your ma's knack for music." He said. I smiled again and nodded. "Yeah. I do." I said and looked at the picture I have of my moms, Jared and I taped on my guitar case.
