Weyr Life Drabbles: Prompt #75 - "Shattered"
His body has been wracked with pain, every waking moment, for as long as I can remember. Even in his dreams it lingers, except when the healers give him fellis, but then both our minds drift. He knows how much that scares me, and lately, he has refused them.
We bear the pain together, sharing everything, as always.
I listen to his mind, his beating heart, as they slow.
And become still.
What was once effortless, suddenly feels like holding the weight of the world, and I cannot hold onto him.
Impossibly alone, I shatter.
React.
And we are ended.
