  I used to stay up at night thinking about Death. And id ended up with salty tears running down my face.

I kept forgetting she wasn't there. And I regret not giving it to her. I was selfish.

Fuck. Why did I leave?

    I couldn't hold her hand for to long. Everyone said we had the same hands. That when they saw her at the hospital her hands were so beautiful... When I think about my hands, I think about hers, when she was dying.

She would pull on the strings that kept her with us. Saying she no longer wanted to be here. I was at the end of her bed.  I choked on my sobs and she looked at me.

I took her presence for granted. I remember when she sat at the computer. At her rocking chair. The

Chair at the end of the table. Always with both hands on a cup of black coffee. And I miss her.

I wish I would have spent more time with her. But I was selfish. I hate myself for being so. And I wish I'd dream of her. Because maybe with the dreams I wouldn't feel so lost and empty.  I wish I could go back

But I think Death knows I was selfish.
