I know that time is short.
I should have seen it coming.
It is too sudden, too soon.
Why? I don't understand.
I've done everything I can just to keep you here.
But, like all things, it isn't enough.
Tears are running down my face.
I can't stop it from happening.
It is a part of life, I know that.
I hold your hand, thinking that my touch will keep you here for one more second.
But still, you go, leaving trails of memories.
What did I do wrong?
Why do you have to leave me?
Please, stay.
Just for one more day.
*dedicated to my cats who are now in cat heaven or wherever may that be. I miss you all.*
