Last Resort

He quickly took his left hand behind it appeared as though he was trying to hide. I pulled his left hand towards me, but he refused when i badly wanted to see. Later he let me see , after i begged him to show me. Gross! That was horrible I thought, there were scars , infact a lot. Each scar had a story, deep and hard to carrY, with pain and worry , I posted my query! WHY , WHY , WHY was all I kept asking, he stood still without talking. A tear drop ran down his cheek, I never saw him cry or weak; As he cried it out, the story started to leak, for him to get back and see him smile was all i seek. It took him so much of tolerance, I couldn't let go in ignorance; If i hadn't seen him now, i would have ended up in his condolence, To hold on to someone I love spoke for my arrogance. As I promised, i wouldn't let go of him in any situation, but he neither listened to any of my explanation. All he said was that he had to leave the world now, I got the dagger, held it right to my chest and said without me HOW ? I was his LAST RESORT and he was my destiny .
