The sky is filled with tears and the earth shook with the sound of my wails that drawn out.The tears are pouring out of my exhausted eyes and my heart is aching at the loss of someone who used to be next to me in every situation I faced.Today is the day I will entomb my aunt .
The words are feeble,the tears are falling harder than the rain,my wails and screams are full of agony.Pain pervade every part of my body and suffocate me.Death is a thief that snatch our heart by taking away the one we love the most and makes us face the excruciating pain that comes along with the memories that haunt us everyday and every second.
I can not express the depth of my pain.It hurts badly maybe the pain will lessen by the time but it will never fade away.She's gone I can't hug her now or take a sniff from her calming scent she can no longer give me advice or wipe my tears away.
Life is like the sea.Mysterious ,scary and filled with secrets hidden behind the waves.Our fate is a secret that can't be exposed.We just sit in a boat trying to withstand the windstorms in order to weather-the-storm.
I didn't sense the presence of Mariano until he put his hand on my shoulder and pulled me closer to his chest.My sobs were loud and my tears keep flowing down my cheeks and I can't do a thing to stop them.
"Shhh Abri everything gonna be okay.I'm here now I'm not going to leave you"Mariano wiped my tears and kissed my forehead.He pulled me away from my aunt's lifeless body when the priest arrived.
"We are gathered here today to set a life free and deliver it from the pain and lead it to the doors of heaven.Our father your power bring us to life and your providence guides our life and show us the right path to cross and by your command we return to dust..."
I couldn't hear a single word the voices around me are fading slowly and it seems like I'm the only one stuck in the middle of the whirlwind trying to get myself back to the shore but I'm drowning slowly and painfully.I can't do this I can't be here.I don't tolerate to see my aunt suffocating under the soil.The tears fell from my eyes and covered my face I wipe them away everytime they fell but I couldn't wipe the pain that was settling in my heart.
I felt two muscled hands pulling me to a toned chest and I knew just from his touch who he was.
"Bri calm down and remember what I told you yesterday.I need you to do this for me okay?"
"M-Mason I-I can't all the people I love fade away like the dust and n-"
"Close your eyes and remember all the memories that you shared along with your aunt.These memories will never fade they will remain locked up in your heart.Your aunt may not be here by your side but she's always present in your heart.And now please calm down and bid the last goodbye to your aunt"
"I-I can't this is too much.T-the pain is
e-everywhere"Tears are bluring my vision,the world is slowing down and everything around me is spining.My body aches at the tought that I will never see my aunt again.I remember when my aunt always told me to be strong she knew that one day I would need the strength to bear her loss but unfortunately I feel so weak,so vulnerable.
