And as i drew my last breath, I looked into his eyes and what I saw was not a man, but death it self. The being looked upon me and time seemed to stop, then every moment of my life seemed to flash before my own eyes. My son and daughter playing and laughing, my beautiful wife smiling as they run and holding me tight. My best friend and I having a laugh when we where kids. My own wedding and how happy I felt. As this life passed in front of me, I soon began to relise how short of a time we have. How little Ive done and yet still so much I wanted to do. Did I ever make her smile or laugh enough? Will I ever see the love of my life again? Will I ever be able to hold her, kiss her, or love her like I used to? As I think of this a tear falls down my cheek as I remember all the times she made me fall in love over and over again. Her little smiles, her laughs, her warmth. Nothing alse felt better than what she was able to make this hollow shell of a man feel. Oh how I thought over and over again how she deserved better, yet she stayed by my side and loved me just as I loved her. My children pass over my body as they see it lye still and my wife gives me a last kiss goodbye, and my friend sheds a tear for his lost brother. Within all this sorrow I feel happy knowing I will be able to watch over them and they have happy long lives. I take one last look at the dark entity and softly whispers, "I am ready." As it takes me away I look back and blow my wife a last kiss. She turns as she feels something on her cheek and then smiles knowing that I will always and forever love her, just as we promised sense we first uttered the words "I love you" to one another. Knowing that even in death, she is the only one for me and the only one I love. Forever and always, always and forever, I will always love you, and never let go.
