Unmoving
her eyes stared straightforward
- empty.
The lines of her face
- hard.
Her normally strong pace
missed its usual confidence;
an aura of loneliness and loss
surrounded the petite figure.
The companion by her side
she did not notice
- ostensible.
Silent he walked
next to her,
making a statement
with his presence alone.
Halting in motion
she lowered her head.
He waited;
his eyes caressed
her small form.
Finally giving in to the urge
to comfort her,
he reached out,
wrapping his arm
around her waist.
One reticent tear
escaped her eyes.
Without looking at him,
she leaned towards
his proffered calm haven.
They moved on
- holding onto each other.
