Lovesick and Fading

She still remembers him. The only man to know her touch She gave him all she had to offer but he didn't leave her much more than some memories. The only ones she'll ever know. She has some time to think them over as her last days creep by slow just like her lover's did. She watched him wither day by day if he had known he had this sickness he'd have pushed her love away to keep her safe from this So she could have a chance at life. So she could live to see her future as a mother; as a wife and not be doomed to this. He would have kept her body pure but now they'll share both life and death because there isn't any cure.
