Footsteps

He left footsteps On maroon heart Pickled my breath Left me teal tart A shadow of self Onyx eyes now dark Casting my cares Left stoic torn apart Let me wallow in my pain I avoid sun and embrace rain For without one the other is vain This too shall pass but I remain Stuck in a lesson learned too well Burned in my brain like fire from hell Give me some time I’m sure to unpack Reorganize my mind get my groove back
