Fate's Footfalls

Numbing echoes of vain haunting footfalls Mute lingerings of ghosts and lovers past A troubled hindsight of sleepless darkness Buried forgotten times of long ago Appeared the footsteps of fate, I followed A path oozing myrrh and serenity Leading me straight into your warm embrace My world is now a blissful paradise AP: 2nd place 2020 Submitted on March 10, 2018 for contest FATE'S FOOTFALLS sponsored by JOHN LAWLESS
