She thinks about the first time she met him, and how she thought she saw something there behind his eyes
the spark
the soul
the kindness
the kindness
but now she looks at him again and sees it was only a mirrored reflection she mistook for a sign.
it was only him-looking-at-her that made the light
and now that he looks away
his world is darkness
but with a blindness even he can't see.
