In a Second

The petite snowflakes fly across the sky, as my sight blurs and he leaves me behind. I try to walk faster even though the snow makes it hard to. I run calling out his name.
I’ve always wished to be by his side, to be embraced by him, to be kissed by him, to be loved by my beloved.
I want to be able to stay by his side; still, I know it’s not happening.
We were meant to meet, but not to be together.
I really want to hold him tight, but it’s too late.
He’s too far away.
The snow covers my face as I touch the ground.
I’m alone in that deep, pure, white space, with nothing, but myself.
My eyes are slowly closing, as I let go of my last breath.
How come I wasn’t able to support him?
Why wasn’t I able to hold his hand when he needed to?
He’s just as free as I am.
I can’t regret anything I’ve done, I know I shouldn’t.
Then, why am I crying?
I shouldn’t wish for him to be beside me.
I had never believed in such thing as love, so this isn’t supposed to be painful…but why?
As I left everyone behind, as the end came near me, I felt that warmth I had forgotten.
‘It’s alright’ it told me.

‘Yes, it’s alright,’ I repeated convincing myself.
It amazes me how easily it’s done,
It all happens in a second.
