Then my smile fades and the back of my eyes begin to itch as the creators light sparks in his hand, threading and combining with the other.
"But what?" I ask, dropping my hands and slowly stepping away until the itch subsides and the reminders fade. Perhaps in the end I will return to that perfect flame and be close to it again, but now is not that time.
