The Letter

by VictoriaRed

I stepped in the footprints of a great shadow, Looming over me in a sunlight halo, A protective cast that wound my life in shade, A little life of sand and dirt, a life of which we’d made But I as asked to look what lies ahead, beyond your frame, You left me behind, and I carried all the blame, I only asked to look what lies ahead, beyond your frame, But you left me behind, and my world isn't the same We were so happy in those moments before With promises of visiting the long winding shore We were supposed to go to the beach
