"What are you thinking?", he asks,
When she looks at him and the horizon beyond.
"Nothing", she says,
Guilty of a mind at peace and a shy smile.
"I like it", he says.
But doesn't reciprocate the likes he so articulates.
"I should call you" were the words,
Long before the calls seemed to sway.
"Where are you now?", were his words of concern,
Soon to dwindle into hours of silence.
"You appear brave", was his understanding of her,
Just before she showed her softer self.
