She still spoke to me....

Relieved over her recovering state,
I headed towards my flat next to the hospital,
It was a chill night, just started snowing,
Time seemed stagnant, I realised my watch had stopped running.
It was the watch she had gifted me for our anniversary last year.
Hastily opened my door hearing the ringing,
It was Dr. Bathra confirming her last breath @ 12:45, when I realised my stopped watch showing the same time.

@ Anwesa
Thank u!

@ Ullas
U better start ya picture blog.

@Abishek Singh
Sadist?
I feel it nowhere suits the context. Morover sadist is referred to a person. You can't term 'so sadist', but 'sadistic'.
Probably u could call it devastating, depressive etc.,
