The ******* leaves, Rustling outside, The skip along the gravel Making it scuffle Like footsteps, Your footsteps, Teasing me. Each time the noise Falls upon my ear My heart instantaneously Beats, pounds In my throat, Suppressing the growing lump which I've been Trying to swallow for hours. I don't know when you'll be back, Or if you'll be back at all, Your body will But your heart seems to be elsewhere.

Footsteps on my heart
The ******* leaves, Rustling outside, The skip along the gravel Making it scuffle Like footsteps, Your footsteps, Teasing me. Each time the noise Falls upon my ear My heart instantaneously Beats, pounds In my throat, Suppressing the growing lump which I've been Trying to swallow for hours. I don't know when you'll be back, Or if you'll be back at all, Your body will But your heart seems to be elsewhere.
I can't deal with fights but I suppose who can? Some of us make it look so easy though...
