Her last words echoed in my ears.  I'll be coming for you, Lily.  I am everywhere.

I waited for everyone to leave, then I sat down in the snow right next to her tombstone.  The freshly dug grave was like a giant pit, ready to swallow up anyone that intruded.

I watched as people dressed in black walked further and further away, turning into dark little dots that littered the snow.  Only a few remained here, and they began to lower her coffin into the grave. 

I should be crying.

But I'm not.

I am heartless.
