You Even through sickness Even through pain Even through your close encounter with Death You still managed to look beautiful.
As your eyes latched onto mine From only a yard away They grew wide, And you opened your mouth to speak... I waited patiently, But only a strangled croak came out.
A tear slipped from my left eye, And I brushed it away.
"Hush, love, don't speak. I'm going to...I'm going to save you."
Now I felt as though it were my throat closing up Instead of yours. I was practically speechless in your presence, Once again. There had never been a better feeling Than this one, Being reunited with you.
It felt like the first rays of sunshine After a thousands of years of darkness. It felt like seeing color When all I'd ever seen before Was black and white. It felt like finally being able to breathe After being stuck underwater To the point of nearly blacking out.
At last, I could breathe again. And it was all because of You.
