Footprints

I kept walking,
Away from myself,
Away from you,
Unsure of direction,
My heart and soul blue,
I kept walking.

The night,
It got darker,
My eyes weeping,
Never knowing why,
My mind sleeping,
I kept walking.

The wind,
Shards of glass,
Tearing through,
Cutting me apart,
The pain only grew,
I kept walking.

The silence,
Heavy like my heart,
Howling in my ears,
Deep, like pain,
Moist, with tears,
I kept walking.

And you,
Cold, distant,
Silent, smiling,
I wept, I cried,
Tears shining,
I kept walking.

I have felt the same
I have realised that though painful i dont want to let go of my pain
you have put my pain into words

Well, the only reason I have not been writing for so long is sheer laziness. I am trying to get over it, and am trying pretty hard... really :P
