bundled together
with toggles and loops
I do like the mood you evoke.  It does seem to end rather suddenly, and i don't quite understand why they're matching.  For me, it feels like we're missing the poignancy of their matching, and the emotion of him leaving - and the reason(s) why?  Or the big theme of the poem?  Is this a mother and child? (or am I searching too hard?)  Maybe a title that gives a clue might be the key to help tie it together...
