Challenge of the Week CXXXI
The Last Time. Perhaps it was the final time you ever did something. Or perhaps it was just the most recent time you did it. Perhaps still, it will be the last time. Either way, it is the last time... Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.

7th To Bedford
6:34 a.m.
Your head in my lap
in a taxi cab home
I traced my fingers
’round the edges of your face
as you closed your tired blue eyes
That morning we made love
for the last time
Ribbons of flesh and blood
smeared on soft Egyptian cotton
I knew it was the end
I knew it before you did
