The Beginning and The End of The Tango is The Walk (Robert Duvall)

… And in between walks

Solitude stands alone

On its toes

It is a fight

With the steps

Not taken

It is the look

That sees inside

And not beyond

Skirts with ruffles

Wrap

Around that fight

Like a summer rain

When walking on the beach

Alone

… And between walks

Shoulders carry

The tired tempo

Of rejection
