Last Days

The doctor told me that he only had days left.
I decided to make them the best days of his life.
In the hospital is where we.
He held my head in his hands.
I gave him all the magazines he liked.
I read his favorite book to him.
I got him the newspaper everyday.
We played catch after school with the football, I wanted him to feel normal.
We watched all the movies he liked with him.
I brought his CD’s and boom box to him.
Then the doctor told me that they estimate that he only had one day left.
I cried for hours on end.
I didn’t know what else to do.
I asked him what he wanted.
He answered my question with one simple word, “you”.
I lay in the hospital bed next to him.
He held me close so that I could hear his heartbeat.
I tried not to miss one beat of that beautiful big heart of his.
Then his heartbeat stopped, he was gone.
