Crossroads

Two roads met at a stone bench;
Two beings sat still -
A petite girl with a solemn face,
A scrawny boy with a kind smile.

In his arms, he gently held her
As she fiddled with her pleated skirt,
She wondered what awaited her
And he gazed on, at a lonely bird..

Quiet they stayed, for a long while
Then they stood, to take the roads
She took one,
He took another.
