Absentia

Snatching her words from the wind
She's still absent, but he'll hold his ground
Gathering his nerve, pressure rising
Some trace of sanity preserved
Appointments to be kept despite the dread
Slowing him through desperate motions
Her memory coaxing him on
Not allowing him to fail
His smile forced despite the fear
Shadowing that holiday cheer.
