Pain of Love I - 6. Footprints in the Snow
I look outside my window
and watch the snow as it falls.
The light from the streetlight
touches the snowflakes
and they sparkle
like falling diamonds.
And I see a lone set of footprints
on the sidewalk,
and my eyes follow them
as they pause outside my door
then continue down the street,
vanishing in the distance.
And I look up at the sky
and see that the snow continues to fall,
its progress to the earth
as inexorable as the progress of time.
And I glance down at the sidewalk
and see the footprints are gone.
And I wonder if they were they ever really there.
And I think of you.
