I wish I had heard your last words.
I wish I had seen your last emotion.
I wish I had felt you a last time.
I wish I had kept you from dying.

What did you say?
I wish it were a soft goodbye
but you didn't smile.
Maybe you didn't want to die.

What did you feel?
I wish it was acceptance
but you looked terrified.
Maybe it wasn't even sufferance.

Why did you go?
I wish you stayed be my side
but you ran away, left me behind.
Maybe you didn't plan to survive.

I screamed your name, begged you to stay.
I was scared of losing you, scared to death.
I reached to you - you slapped my hand away.
I couldn't stop you from taking your last breath.
