She looks over and flashes a gentle grin.

The voice on the other end becoming more noise than words.

She knows she isn't in control anymore - and she liked that.

With a swift goodbye she hangs up the phone and slowly strolls over.

That smile still hanging on her face.

It's just the two of them now.

Awkward yet comfortable.

With the imminent doom at the back of their minds,

neither side knew what to say.

Their eyes started sprouting silent words,

both willing their smiles to stay.

And by the beauty of the flickering flames,

Time stood still -

Just busking in her presence.

Some day, when I'm awfully low.

When the world is cold,

I will feel a glow just thinking of you..

and the way you look tonight.
