I say, not very far. In fact, it seems both are apparently within just a breath away. For it is a matter of sensitivity, a careless word or words or even lack of, can turn happiness and joy into worry, and a microsecond later, into pain, when you realized the one you love merely passed by without noticing you sitting by the bench out here...without even casting a glance if you still exist...
You have been together in this journey for years, sharing a life that Love has brought you, and then .. all of a sudden, it is curtain call without warning, very much like an unannounced blackout. Everything suddenly turned dark, everyone is stunned for a short while, and then we start groping for a candle or a flashlight..and life seemed to be going on just like the same but really it never is.. never will be...
I am done and over with..until it is time for you to go...please say so.
