The Distance Between You and Grace

You've always felt the distance Grace maintains, like invisible palms pressed against your chest. But there's no distance in her voice, just a crack along the edge, a shadowy spill of things that can't be said. She meets your eyes in the darkness and suddenly you see something has changed. I'm going to miss you too,. It's the most unguarded thing you've ever said. You want her so much that it wraps around your bones. Can we get out of here? Her drowsy eyes clear, and she looks at you, clearly concerned. Let's go.
