Thank you, I gave it a second read and it was plain. I guess I got confused
because
Second person refers to the person or people "you" in both singular and
plural, the "we" also being inclusive. I don't mean to quibble. I just find
it interesting. You may want to speak more of this "other" or not. I find
it interesting that this other person may want to rest, but it is inferred
that the narrator does not; showing drive, determination and passion.
Should we draw the conclusion that the other person does not have these
qualities? I may be barking up the wrong tree with these inquiries- so
please excuse me if I'm far afield.

I'm just wondering why you switch from "we" to "you"? Do you expect to rest.
I'm not sure how to read that line. I like what you're doing in the poem,
the images are very evocative. Annabelle
Annabelle, only that there is a companion with me on the journey. Who may
show in some but not all.
