His and Her Nights Apart

He's waiting for her to come back.
He looks up at the moonless night sky.
This is all he can see without her.
A sigh is as far as he can breathe.

She's waiting to see him.
She looks at the dark starless sky.
Dark is all she can see without him.
A tear is as quiet as her prayers can reach.
