“Take
my breath away.” She whispered softly, dark streaks of mascara running down her
cheeks.
“How can it hurt so much?” She asked me, half begging for an answer, half pleading for a solution. I felt her grip, I could see in her eyes that she thought it was strong. I didn't have the heart to tell her how weak she was, that her hand felt as cold as ice. I didn't dare look down. I didn't dare acknowledge the crimson warmth around my knees as I knelt by her side. I didn't dare to look what was left of the car window as its jagged memories protruded from her side. There was nothing I could say, I wish I could say “It’ll be okay.” I did try, I moved my lips and forced my tongue to make its shapes, but nothing came out.
“I’m so sorry.” she whispered. A dark realisation shadowing her beautiful blue
eyes. Eyes that once sparkled like sapphires. I could tell that those eyes no
longer saw me. T-hat behind her gaze was a movie reel playing every memory she
could ever hope to share. She tilted her head, I knew she was looking at me
again. “This was truly, a beautiful honeymoon.” She whispered with a faint smile. For that moment, everything washed away, there was no blood, no running mascara, no glass, and no tears. The hand that held mine was strong and warm, and her vibrant red lips parted to let the voice of an angel escape.
“You are my sunshine, my only sunshine…”she sung hoarsely, the glow of life
flowing away from her face, the sparkle in her eyes falling to darkness, her
heart beating its last beat, and her hand going limp, held by mine. My tongue
finally untied itself, I wanted to scream, cry, beg, but all that came out was a
soft song, rocked by sobbing.
