Footprints on my Soul ...

On a melancholy note today ...
I reminisce about yesterday ...
Some souls that touched my soul ...
Some that brushed past ...
Some that hurt ...
Can hurt me no more ...
Yet footprints on my soul ..
Nevertheless.

In a World..
Already bitter with their own truths ...
Souls lay bared ...
Ensnared in their own nets ...
I walk about ...
Watching them struggle ...
No remorse ...
Yet, a sadness envelops ...
Seeing people suffer ..
Not knowing it is but a mirage.

Imprints on a tender heart ..
Scars that remain ..
Healing taken place yet ...
A twitch to feel the ache ...
Footprints ...
On the sands of time ...
Footprints on my soul.
