Could this be the end?
They weren't sure
He couldn't bear to be alone again
And she just felt so... Hurt
Their relationship was difficult
She was irritated by the routine
And annoyed by the sounds he made when he was drinking
And she would get upset so quickly
He... Seldom said anything about anything
When he watched her closely
It felt hard to believe, that he had ever loved her
Or she, him
Her smile... Seemed like a lie to him
But time went by so quickly
And very soon
The summer came
And everything got better
The stopped having breakfast together
And decided to move into separats flats
There was this light feeling
Everything seemed so easy
They kissed each other more often
She laughed at his jokes
The sex got more exciting
And when he was at work
He could not stop thinking about her
When they were together the looked happy
But sometines when their eyes met
They weren't quite sure who they were looking at
And with every kiss
A new secret was born
And then quite suddenly
They began to feel excited
But insecure
They just hadn't had the chance to get to know each other
Almost like strangers
When he called her the next day
He felt nervous
And the conversation was short
That night
He couldn't sleep
Not for one second
Then
They met at a friend's birthday party
He tried to be funny
And she
Kind of liked him
Yet there was almost no time left for them
Later that night
He arrived at the party
And there she was
Sitting across the room
Did he kwon her from somewhere?
And then... Their eyes met
For the very last time
They would not see each other ever again
But still
At that very moment
She smiled.

"I always heard your entire life flashes in front of your eyes the second before you die. 
First of all, that one second isn't a second at all, it stretches on forever, like an ocean of time... 
For me, it was lying on my back at Boy Scout camp, watching falling stars... 
And yellow leaves, from the maple trees, that lined my street... 
Or my grandmother's hands, and the way her skin seemed like paper... 
And the first time I saw my cousin Tony's brand new Firebird... 
And Janie... And Janie...
And... Carolyn. 
I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me... 
But it's hard to stay mad, when there's so much beauty in the world. 
Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst... 
And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life... 
You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure. 
But don't worry... you will someday.
