Footsteps & Fire

In the night I follow his fiery shadow,

It’s the only light I know.

During the day he’s kept at bay but his footsteps burn into my soles.

My soul’s imprinted, his steps printed,

I will never again walk alone.

On the darkest of days, he comes to say

Little one, follow me home.

I was abandoned, just like you, but with no steps ahead to follow.

I leave my steps at the back of my tread so you don’t have to walk alone.

The up and the down are turned upside down,

I found no other concrete paths.

Yours I could see in the darkest of dark,

Because your footsteps have remnants of

Gold,

Love and,

Wrath.


(Larna Bobby Lou)
