Alyssa

I stared down at Alyssa’s pale body laying on the hospital bed. Tears streaming down my face. I had my hand over a switch on the wall. I couldn’t bring myself to turn it off, but I know I have to. Than Alyssa can finally be at piece. The doctors said there would be a chance she would eventually wake up, but I knew that what made Alyssa, Alyssa, was gone. Physically she was here, all she is a corpse. I fought back a bitter laugh. She did want to be a corpse for Halloween. I looked over at my hand and before I had time to contemplate my decision, I turned the switch off. I swear, when I did that, it felt as though a part of me died. I couldn’t help but feel guilty. She’s gone…and it’s my fault.
