YOU WAITED
Theresa screams for Keith, her hands around me.
She's shaking, she mustn't cry for me, I'll be fine.
I hear loud footsteps come down the stairs, I don't have the strength to look up.
" Kea?....Kea!" I hear him before I feel him, his arms laying me against him.
" Kea?...Baby, angel...no, no." His hand pats my cheeks, demanding my attention.
I do all I can to blink away the blurriness, the tears wanting to block my view but I fight it all, just to see him one last time.
