Dying in your arms

It was just another night
We were walking down the street
I was walking you home
From the movies
He was fast
I almost didn't see him
He snatched your purse
And ran like the wind
I pursuited him
I was faster
I caught up to,
tackled, and grabed him
I took back your purse  
He pulled out a gun
Three shots point blank
And the deed was done
He ran once he saw
what he had done
He ran away  
leaving tracks of blood
You came to me and  
saw I was harmed
I told you I loved you
and I was dying in your arms
You went through your bag
Found your phone and dialed
Told them to hurry
because my injuries were not mild
I kissed you and said
everything would be alright
Then everything went black
like dead of night
When my eyes opened  
everything was white
I thought I died
and went into the light
My first audible words
were" Am I in heaven?"
When I saw you
I knew I was there
