The Lament

Chapter 26

The Lamenting of the Soul

 I held to his body in my arms tightly to my chest, I couldn't let him go he was drifting away from me with each passing moment and as I rocked back and forth with him. The tears fell from my eyes to his face and I could feel the warmth leave his body with every passing minute. 

He was my world....... I don't know what to do. His eyes were wide open staring up at me. I couldn't close them then I would feel as though he had really left me. I needed him to keep looking at me it would allow me to live in the illusion that he was still with me. What had I done? Why did that have to happen. I could feel the emptiness in my body. I could feel my voice bellowing into to the wind. I couldn't hear my voice echo over the mountains as I screamed his name....I was sure I was screaming though I felt it only on the inside.

I couldn't face the stares. I couldn't face my reflection. I just wanted him to stand up and lift me into his arms saying it was okay.

That was wishful thinking. After all I'm the one that killed him.

His now cold life-less body laid in my arms.....finally there was no warmth left.My soul lamented. He was gone Kazuo was dead.
