leaning up against his. “Hey sweetie!!”he said it so sweetly everytime 
“Hey Carter. Hey listen I have to tell you something.” I paused. I was 
so nervous. “Carter, I love you.” Silence. I looked into his eyes. His 
eyes were getting red and then tears started to stream down his face.He 
wiped them away with great force. Fast. He ran out of the school, 
running as fast as his feet would take him. I ran after him but soon 
lost sight of him. “Carter! Carter!” I screamed at the top of my lungs. 
“God damn it don’t run away from me!” my voice had weakened and trailed 
off half way through my sentence. I was worn out  from crying, running 
and screaming. 

I drove to his house hoping he’d be there. Sure enough he was. His truck
was parked in the driveway. I got out of my old car and went and patted 
on his window. He slowly raised his head from the steering wheel. He 
had been crying alot. He looked weak, worn out and very sick. Deathly 
ill. What was happening to my soul mate? I opened the truck door, 
climbed in, sat on his lap and just put my head on his chest. I’d 
always do that whenever I was scared or worried. He was always the 
strong one. Now I would have to be strong for him just as he had for 
me. I raised my head and looked into his deep blue eyes. 

He said to me in a low, mellow tone voice “I need to talk to you.” We
went into his living room, sat on the couch and cuddled just like we 
had thousands of times before. This time was different though. I could 
feel it. Something was terribly wrong!!!!  We were supposed to talk but 
he couldn’t. I just held him. He was crying and shaking.I was so 
scared.What was I supposed to do? He told me that he just needed some 
time alone. I was resistant to let him stay there all by himself but he 
insisted he’d be fine. Through his sobs I found it quite unpossible. 
All I wanted to do was stay there holding him in my arms until the end 
of all eternitry. Later that night he brought me a letter. He didn’t 
stay. I kissed him and gave him a hug.I wanted to say I love you to him 
but I wasn’t about to cause that scene all over again. Unfolding  the 
paper I thought it may be a love letter, a sappy poem or an apology 
letter. Then I realized it was tear stained. What was going on? 

Reality my love, 

I know I have some explaining to do. Reality I’ve always told myself
that I’d never fall in love. Then I met you and that all changed. 
You’re so honest, smart and gorgeous. I told myself I wouldn’t fall in 
love because..........Reality I have aids. I was born with it. I didn’t 
want to ever get attached to anybody, Afraid that they wouldn’t care 
for me or the fact that it would hurt too much just to be in love. 
Knowing that you will be forever seperated from that person. That’s why 
today when you told me that you loved me I was so scared because the 
thing is I love you too. I love you with all my heart. I will always 
love you. I go into the hospital next week. Doctors say I’ll be there 
for about two weeks. I have chosen to go without medicine just to get 
it over with. No drugs could have made me feel the way you do and no 
pain will ever hurt as much as knowing that I have to leave you alone 
in this world, and that I won’t be for even a second breaks my heart. I 
love you Reality. That will never ever change no matter what has 
happend or where I am. 

I fell to the ground. What was he saying? Icurled up into a little
ball.I cried so hard I passed out. I didn’t care. I wanted to die. 
Carter was my life. That was my reason for living. Why Carter? Why him? 


I saw Carter one last time at school. He looked horrible. I couldn’t
bare to see him like that. The next day he was put in the hospital. It 
was now obvious how deathly ill Carter really was. I stayed with him as 
much as I could. 

Carter Lisse died of AIDS/HIV three months later. 

Life did not seem to be worth living. What was the point? My only love
was gone. And like a fibbed to Carter saying Britney was my role model 
I am not lying when I say that Carter was my true role model and 
inspiration because he taught me more than anyone ever could. He taught 
me about true love, friendship, inspiration, the real fears in life and 
overall an amazing outlook on life no matter how bad things get. 

Carter I love you baby. Rest in peace. God Bless.
