held hands

As she walked silently down the bumpy trail,
she often encountered love found,
and love failed.
Waiting for a grand arrival,
and then another heartbreak,
and though broken at heart,
her dream remained.
Someday on the long, twisting road,
she would discover,
a curve in the road
that would lead to another.
He too would've learned about
heartache and fights,
and they would know how to love eachother
just right.
As she arrived at a new junction of paths,
he gently took her hand and smiled and laughed.
They cautiosly walked down
the trail of dirt,
lined with thorns and briars
and desolate earth.
As the days grew many
they kept eachother's company
and made their lives
a little less lonely.
