"Suffocating, fading, falling, dissapearing in a spiralling black abyss with a gentle touch that seems to almost laugh at his pain. He reaches, but only feels a fiery burn sensation that forces him to let his arm fall limp to his side. He knows he's dead...he knows that he is laying on that bed with glazed eyes and pale skin with a non-beating heart. He fights still. Why? There must be something...somewhere... The cold becomes unbearable as he begins to tumble in his own mind, falling miles and miles into himself. He calls out and screams but all have turned away. Even those he loved...'NO!' He can no longer see as his arms and legs lift away, ' i won't!'
Then
he felt her.
Her silk skin...her gentle voice...her angelic benevolence....her warm face in his hand as she sat in his lap...Closer now, he could smell her perfume. He could feel her nip his ear playfully....he reaches....nothing still; calls her name she answers, 'yes my love?'
'where are you?' he yells, the coldness of his deathbed beginning to thaw. 'where?' Fading now...where was she?? he panicked, reaching in the air, 'wait! wait!' she was gone...he couldn't even think about her. 'wait!' his anguished yell was heard in both heaven and hell as he felt his spirit depart. 'wait...' and he suddenly felt warm.
He opened his eyes, still on the bed. She was staring at him, holding his hand. 'Are you alright?' He stared at her and let his soul return and he reached up to touch her face, 'You didnt...leave me.' She grinned, and leaned down, kissing his hand. 'No, i never would.' "

Yeah I guess my blog has ended up a bit gothic.. but it's not what it's intended to do..

I set it up to tell people what they should know. To tell them the realities of life. Not just people running through meadows and having wonderful romances with Mr/Miss Perfect.

It tells you what you need to know..

Anyway.. I love your writing! I'd love to get a copy of some of it! You can truly express the soul feelings of an individual..

Better than some professional authors in my opinion!

Keep it up Xira! Love it!
