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.
