Chapter 5 - sour

He wakes up with a start as he clenches at his heart.

The blood of life slows down as he departs.

10 years with his love and that's not enough.

The mirage of his life slips by as he faints.

In a stupor of death he takes his last breath.

As she sleeps unaware of her loves final breath.

We start as we end with nothing once again.

Leave behind all delights and all pains of this earth.

She wakes after hours to find a stiff lifeless man.

The one whom she called her own.

Trembling hands as she dials for the ambulance that just wont bring him back to her hands.

Heavy in heart it's his time to depart and she wishes her life stopped there.

What's left is a shell of a woman loved well by the man who lost his fight.

Unaware of his plight she never read the signs of illness he hid so well.

Sour and bitter her hate consumed her.

oh why must he hide this from her.

Now alone she must dwell in this complicated world alone without his love to protect her.
