A girl leaves foot prints of red 
but Her feet are not bleeding
Because the world can't hurt Her
But her connection to the earth 
has been severed
And her soul is bleeding 
Out of the soles of her feet
She feels lost 
because she appears to be surrounded
by a maze of red footprints 
where she has already walked In circles 
again 
and again 
and again
The trees are brown 
The leaves are green
The earth is white
And the people are grey
They leave no footprints
But whatever color she had 
left When her soul started to bleed out
And even though she suspects she is lost
And knows she won't be found
Something keeps her feet moving
And something 
stops her soul from healing
But something keeps her blood flowing
And she suspects it is her heart
one day she found a new set of footprints
They were blue
And they were cold
But they were there
She followed them to the boy 
with a broken heart
And patched up his heart 
before he bled out
And even though their footprints 
never stopped
And the world seemed just as white
and just as full of grey people
and just as full of grey people
And they still had no idea where their
feet were trying to take them
feet were trying to take them
They knew they would make it there together
They were blue, and they were cold, but they were there
ReplyDeleteLove that
"And the people are grey"
