FOOTSTEPS SET IN TIME
FOOTSTEPS SET IN TIME
The lightness of
your footstep
as you hurried to me
caught in the slowly setting
concrete
you didn’t see
holds your fleeting love
permanently
your footsteps
greedy for me
paying no attention
to the world whatever
only knowing that
in a few footsteps more
you would be precious
and adored for who you are
your footsteps
still exist
echoing inside my tears
as I put my next step
inside yours
and the snow fills
the other footsteps up.
