breaking off

Man-
I walked a step
But said nothing
You walked a step ahead But never turned back.
As I kept wandering
How your eyes felt about it
You started off
Never to look back again.



Woman_
I walked a step away from you
Towards the strangeness of the night
Felt like turning,
Touching your jaw line
Shuffling your hair
Set it and things right again-
Your sigh filled the air around
An impinging defeated succumbed air
I started off into Unknown
Never perhaps to turn back again.
