Elusive

I toss and turn. I turn the fan on and 5 minutes later I turn it off. I quickly notice a stream of tears. I close my eyes.

I see her limpless, lifeless body on a puddle of blood. I am crying and screaming, while people stand around me and watch on.

I delve deeper and strain harder  to understand the events that transpired. The explanation remains elusive, it has been for the last, soon to be 13 years.

I am in and out of consciousness on a hospital bed. Everyone I dearly love in a state of shock, frantically looking for answers.

I remained numb, that day in the hospital and the day I was told that she was gone, she did not make it. The cheerful one, the kind one, the fighter who made through several other death traps decided to quit, decided to give up.

She would have been 30 today- Happy Birthday ma petite soeur douce.
