Velvet Footprints |
| by Lacysoul |
Didn't you see the sign out front
on the iron door with rusting hinges,
graying from under use?
It said
Keep Out - Enter At Your Own Risk.
But you chose to risk your heart
and placed a wanting hand on the cruel knob.
A silent velvet footstep filled me,
unwelcome yet needed.
You found my hidden beach,
with grains of time and an ocean
of secret secrets, violet and red.
You left your trail of deep blue footsteps
on my glowing beach of soul,
and no matter how many times
the tides wash the sand anew,
your prints can never be erased.
Each one shines, a star in my lonely universe.
