every line

every line in his face she knows well

every spot on his skin is so  dear

as he sleeps

while she reads

as he reads

while she eats

as they go through their daily routine

stumbling through old age and ignoring old pain

so much said

during  soothing silence of being together

 

the thought that one day he might be gone

is the only cry in her nights

is her fear

and only then

she is one minute

lonely

I see this in my in-laws who are at the 80 mark. a stirring read.
And so they wait, together. Wonderfully written.
