Where He Stands With Her

Home is anywhere and everywhere. From Long Beach, California to Halifax, Nova Scotia.

And when it's time to leave, he waits ironcast and stoic. Alone with the outstretched sea.

His duty is but a shadow that casts its deep light on all that he does.

And that duty is what he stands for, staring, wondering endlessly a duty to who.

But when he holds her the longing breaks through, and
with it the knowing she's been there waiting too.
