"i'm sorry, emily. i'm so sorry that i didn't help you."

he whispered

as

she grimaced

holding onto his hand.

he wouldn't

let her go

as she tried to tug away,

he was paralyzed

in fear, that she'd

hurt

herself

again and in the process,

she'd hurt him too.

"why would you be sorry?

i did this to myself."

she looked down at her thin fingers,

intertwined in his.

then the question came from his lips as he stared at her,

"why... why would you want to hurt yourself?"

and thus she realized how sick she became.
