She was fine. At least that's what everyone heard from her. On the inside, she wasn't. I mean, her love had died when she was only faking it all along. If only he knew at the time, seeing her seemingly cold dead body in the coffin. If only he knew her heart was still beating and her lungs were still breathing, if only he knew. Maybe she wouldn't have to hold up her facade that even though she was alive on the outside, on the inside she was already dead. If only he knew, he'd still be here with her right now. They could have little children of their own, like how she knew he wanted. If only he knew.
