What Remains After Us

I always thought love would give us more time.

But time has been slipping through our hands faster than we can hold onto it. Days blur into nights filled with hospital lights, soft whispers, and promises we’re both too scared to break. There are things she won’t say, questions I’m too afraid to ask, and moments that feel like they’re meant to be our last—yet neither of us dares to acknowledge it.

She smiles like she’s trying to hide something.
I pretend I don’t notice. Maybe that’s our tragedy: the way we both cling to hope while drowning in the fear of losing each other.

This is a story about love in its most fragile form—
the kind that aches quietly, the kind that tries to stay strong even when everything else is falling apart.

A story of two people holding on as tightly as they can…
even as the world keeps reminding them that time doesn’t wait, and love isn’t always enough to save what’s slipping away.

And in the end, there’s only one question left between us...

How do you say goodbye when you’re still trying to believe there’s a chance to stay?
