Poems
Apr 2018
HER FOOTSTEPS ARE MADE OF FIRE
Her footsteps are made of fire
They leave burnt tracks in her w a k e . . . .
Her footsteps are made of fire
A map of where to follow her
To pursue her
To help her
To love her
Her footsteps are made of fire
Of the fury that she feels
Of all the people from before
Who decided she was theirs
Theirs to own
Theirs to hurt
Theirs to break
Her footsteps are made of fire
Of fury, of pain, of sadness
An endless trail of it all
To lead on forever
You follow her to slow the trail
So she won't burn herself
The faster she walks away
The more fire will arise
The burnt trail will stop being ashes
And instead be flames that lick at her sides
