Have you ever looked into someone's eyes, only to see the light gone?
When the pain overcomes the will, the soul flees. Its sanctuary shattered, it escapes to a better place.
I was heartbroken to see her there, eyes numbly searching the wallpaper for sights unknown, feeble smiles a weak jesture of strength, hollow.
But then you came back. Instantly, your inner strength returned, as did the light in your eyes that I have fallen so hard for. Sunlight streamed into the room, at that dark hour of the night, and your face beamed.
It was then that I knew you'd be okay. When your smile actually moved your cheeks, and your mind clicked back on, I smiled inside.
