Pain

You didn't deserve what you had

You were given the short stick

I wish I could have taken it from you

You were innocent and precious

Now you're gone

Your life vanquished in a moment

You didn't need to die like that

I wish I could have saved you

I beat myself up about it

Nothing will ever be the same

I'm so sorry

Tears drip down my face

It is surreal

I wish I could take you into my arms

I gasp as tears burn my cheeks

Today went horribly wrong

Will anything go right again?
