i knocked out the bastard
with a single blow
and then i heard her whisper
'caleb'
and my whole world came crashing down
i collapsed next to her
'no no no'

my face was wet with blood
and tears
as i held the love of my life
and watched her fade away
while i begged her
to stay
and told her
that
i loved her
