The longest walk of his life

The longest walk of his life
was not the battlefield.
It was forty-two steps down a stone aisle
with his daughter's hand in the crook
of the same arm that carried her at two,
caught her at seven,
and held her mother's coffin at forty-one.
His medals could not prepare him for this.
When he lifted the veil,
his hands shook in a way
combat never made them shake.
She looked up at him
and he saw her mother's eyes
giving him permission to let go.
He didn't.
Not fully.
Not ever.
