she hears his voice and everything melts away. she closes her eyes and drifts on his words. his stories fill her head and she smiles. he cant see her lips but he knows. from her replies and her tone, he knows. things havent been so good for her lately but she wont tell him that. she wonders if he needs to know. why would he? she doesnt even want to know and she was there. honestly what could he have done? held her. soothed her. told her it would be okay? would she have believed him? she would have wanted to believe him. but she cant be sure if she would have. sometimes she felt like nothing and even his presence didnt make a difference. she breathed him in and thought of what hed been doing. she wasnt sure if being there wouldve made it better. she got a thrill out of listening to him. and boy how he made her smile... and laugh. no... she decided that this time, and only this time, distance was an advantage. she would listen to his words and love the way he spoke. revel in his joy and be thankful for his happiness.
