Footprints

skyebellasario

How can you just disappear?

Walk straight out of my life,

Leave only footprints

As a reminder we happened.

 

Etched with our memories,

Your footprints are wherever 

My eyes rove.

 

As if you strolled through

A muddy field, leaving trails

like we once did

Together.

Your footprints are fossilised

In my mind.

 

All I can wish is, someday

A raging storm of hope

Will arrive 

And wash your footprints away.

        But those same footprints are the source of the life lessons you've learned. Food for growth. ; )
