I am nothing

You hear screaming so you run down the hall and into my bedroom. You see me lying in a pool of blood, life slowly being sucked from me. My eyes becoming still, dead. You scream and shake me but its too late. You hold my hand and whisper into my ear, "please wake up" as tears slide down your cheek and onto the floor. You pull the knife from my other hand and throw it at the wall with anger. Great anger. You are soaked in my blood as you lay next to me and pull me close to you, wishing you hadn't let this happen. You beg god to bring me back because you know you will me miss me. No matter how much we fought, you will miss making me smile, hearing me laugh, holding me in your arms. You kiss me softly on my forehead and tell me you love me.
Years past, and i slowly fade away. I am drained from your memory like the blood from my body. I am no longer thought of on cold, lonely nights. Nobody remembers me when they set the table at dinner.
I am nothing.
