Jo Bien Poet Free verse

Footsteps

I couldn't tell
how this would end
telling my mind
it was all in the plan
yours not mine
 
I didn't know
I had a lesson to learn
following your lead
listening with my heart
which is now broken
 
I should have used my mind
trumped your moves
been less oblique
less follower, more leader
should have mastered this game
 
time will tell
if you won in the end
my heart will heal
but my footsteps will echo
small but deep in your soul
