Please don't go
Don't walk out
Feel like you do
When the bottom falls out
Hold me now
Hold me tight
I can't see
In the dark of night

The pain and confusion is so clear on her face, even as I take her hand, telling the story of when we met. I don't know how to make her see, but by Gods I am trying. I need her to see who I am, but more than that I need her. I can't let go. No matter the body, no matter the face, I will always love her. Her grip is confident within my own and I can feel hope rise within me. I see her looking past the outer, seeing me. She will still need time, something I can always give her, something I will always have.

I look into his eyes as he takes my hand, words with meanings and feelings that I can't take in. I know what I saw, the light, the changes right before my eyes. It hurts that he didn't tell me before that this would happen. But I can see why he was so afraid clearly written in those eyes. Eyes that not long before were blue, but even as I look at these new brown eyes I see the same man behind them. The same fears, the same hearts. But as I look into them I see something else. I see my daughter's eyes in this man's. I see her smile more clearly on him than I did the man before. I take comfort in this and know in my heart that this is my Doctor and that I have not lost him. I will still morn the old face that he had, for that face saved me. But now I hold hope in our future so I squeeze his hand in turn, giving him what I know he needs.
