the threads in her head

When little gestures are done to make someone feel special.

What does the other party feel like that? All sweet and melting? Warmth spreading throughout? A tiny smile played out at your lips, the curve of which turns up to make for a pleasant-looking face. A warm vibrant laugh. As like a good warm stew, thick and full of goodness on a cold day, giving much needed warmth. A fizzy feeling of surprise and joy in your heart.

It is much better than the feeling of cold fingers surrounding your heart, or that of a heavy heart, that choke out tears.

The tears shed then are sweet tears. Tears that sparken and glisten, catching the light at different angles. Joined with laugher, it is the strangest scene you could ever set your eyes on, but one that would make others feel just that little tug of warmth in the bottom of their heart. It is those happy ending.

Seems to be quite long since I felt like this. Not empty, not numb, but feeling rather happy. Being able to really smile. I could look at the stars, see the sun set, and not feel nostalgic, but instead, light-hearted.

Light-hearted. It seems almost like a dream, but it's true. I feel light-hearted right now. There's no rush. I can sit back. Enjoy the breeze. Admire the stars.

Reminds me of yesteryears.
