Surviving The Elements of Life

Prologue

"I know your still there Ryan, you just have to breath baby." I kept encouraging her. "Come on baby girl. All you have to do is breath." Gripping her hand tighter than I thought possible, I kept trying to make her take a breath, showing me that everything is going to be okay. 

I never thought that it would be like this, it wasn't supposed to happen like this not at the cost of losing her just shortly after finding her. Just shortly finding out she existed.

"I can't lose you now Ryan, breath god damn-it, please breath please." I can hardly even see her through my tear filled eyes, waiting to spill over for the first time in over seventeen years. tears for her mother and now for her. Am I cursed that I would lose every love of my life? Her mother was my savior and then my executer, the day she left was the worst thing that could have happened to me. It not only ruin my live but also my beautiful baby-girls live. Seventeen years worth of life ruined, seventeen years of live unlived because of her mothers’ doing. Her mother's actions have taken away all of Ryan's innocence, her childhood, her good outlook on live, the way life is supposed to be. Not having a drug addict mother, an abusing mother, a selfish uncaring mother who only worries about her next fix or who she could sleep with next for money. Ryan didn't deserve any of that. She finally found that warmth, the love, the safety, the comfort and finally started living. Now she is having it ripped away from her in such a short time.

"You have to let her go Taylor she's gone. Karl was trying to pry my fingers away and make me stand up from my position where I was cradling Ryan's once warm body, with her fingers still in a tight grip around mine. "Come Taylor, you tried everything. I'm sorry brother." 

Tears made their way down my cheeks. 'I can't believe she's gone.'
