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
