Nameless one

Upon lonely roads
We tread,
Holding hands together
We feel the sudor

We squirm at this
Yet look on
to find a future
among foggy roads

She turns while walking
seeing him overcoming a hurdle
with unmentionable ease
his posture set his eyes ahead

she turns her gaze on herself
doodling on the pages of her memory
uncertainty any movement
she feels the water trickle down

she pushes these incertitude of thoughts
her sore throat quelling her voice
she sits through lectures writing crappy poems
and yet the devices find soul

What is the point?
the cynic questions
strangers walk past averting their gaze
the hypocrisy stinks itself
she still walks silently

the sweat now mildly disconcerting

she quizzes herself
time and again
the past, the present, the future
all swirl in a mixture of cliques
she grasps an answer through this mess
'you are a fool' she condemns herself

he still walks on
her slowing pace lengthening his worth
'let her rest' he contemplates
for the journey is far ahead

little he knows her thoughts
her trembling hands he steadies
ready to battle all her fears
he knows not her demons

Quietly she readies herself
loosening his grip keeping calm
far ahead far behind she sees a fork
she knows not, the moment is long gone.
