Hey everyone,

Here's my response to Jonny's post. I hope you all like it!

"The Light Shines, Upon The Distance Of My Broken Heart"

I - Absence Grows...
The light shines. It still does mostly, but maybe not as much now. I have said too many things that would have upset you. And they probably did. They probably did. Probably. Maybe they did not. The light still shines. It's the distance between us. Distance? You never left. I never moved away. I didn't. You were right here. I was right beside you. Distance? Upon your eyes. Cold vacant stares. There was nothing there. Distance? You couldn't measure it. Both of us, walking away in our minds. Walking away from what? From each other. From ourselves. From something that I don't know much about and probably can't find words to talk about it. Words? There are none. Thoughts? They've all fallen onto this page. Feelings? The light shines. Light? It's the distance that made it go dark. It's the distance. Distance? I can't measure it. I can't and I should. Can you? Icy stares. Cold vacant eyes. Can you? You can't. I can't. We're both running away in our minds. Running away from what? Distance.

II - Beginning?
I had a dream about it once. That's probably all it was, but I'm not sure. You left me there. And I think that was what started everything. But I don't know. I never do......

III - This Light Still Shines
We ran away from the distance. We ran away from ourselves. And now there's a rift there that can never be healed. But within the split I see, the light still shines. Icy cold stares. Cold, frozen smile. The light shines, the light spreads. The light shines over these feelings fallen on the pages, over the chill, the cold black frost of you. The light shines over my cracked, tired smiles. Everything. Everything. There was no other way. The light shines over me. The light shines over you. The light shines over the lies. The light shines over the mistakes we made. The light shines over the things I have said to upset you. The light shines, when you run away in my mind. The light shines over the distance we made. Distance?

The light shines, upon the distance of my broken heart.
