"Please be with me. Love me the way you do now, forever."
He wakes and checks. She's not there.
Empty white sheets and a propped pillow. Black underwear and fallen golden hair. Tomorrow is another day, For hope against hope.
"You are the best man I have ever met."
He closes his eyes tight.
She's not there.
