Light

Lit up faces- the first thing that comes to mind is joy, pure happiness. What else could spending valuable time with family, friends, & people whom you truely treasure bring you other than a face that's lit up? But all that we see & feel is an aching neck, an expresionless face, a head heavy with sorrow, a cramping hand, & an occasional glance up, as if it were a gesture of reassurance to make sure we were not alone & we're all enjoying the quality time we're spreading together. After this, a small smirk is grown as we glance back down.
