Footprints

Footprints

A gentle imprint on a trusting heart
A journey through life in your eyes
A round curvaceous destiny restricted
to the essential thing in your life

You have had a strange effect on me.
I mean there was one engraving in
the sand of descision. And now there's two
But hold on look further down the line when the
storm ended its period of calm and
christened its path of destruction.

Then i remember that time memorial
saying of you carrying me through the storm,
But you honestly left didn't you? Gently strolled
out of my trusting open heart, quietly twisted the key,
banishing me to a life of solitude. No more thuds of anger
and beating anxious love stricken hearts.

Just the sombre sound of the sea waves
death kissing the shore and my heart beating into surrender.

As i watched the waves wash your footprints away.
