Held Up

He's held up 
by what seems to be
his own thoughts. 
Racing and whirring, 
like the wind 
over the flat fields. 
He has choices
but none of them are easy 
either way, things will change. 

She's held up
by what seems to be 
her own fears. 
Rushing and stirring 
her poor little heart, 
like rain on young flowers. 
She has a voice, 
but holds silence, 
because speaking up never worked before. 

They sit side by each 
and say nice things, 
yet all the while 
the things they want to say 
go again, unsaid. 
They're held up.
