Footsteps In An Empty Room
How are the footsteps following me into a room empty except for myself?
Footsteps In An Empty Room
How are the footsteps following me into a room empty except for myself?
(two poems; one of the past, and one of the present)
Remake (Footsteps In An Empty Room)
Where’s the hope they took
waterfall eyes
i hear them coming
silently
stop the rain
clean my face
breathe in
then out
but the footsteps
are coming
closer
closer
and im not sure
who theyre for
i hear them
pacing
every night
i see their shadow
fall
holding their face
who is this
who am i
these footsteps
keep following
i wonder when
i will realize
who really paces
who really cries
and as i fall
face in my hands
i finally realize
these footsteps
keep following me
pacing
crying
falling
aching
who is this?
who am i?
when
when
will the footsteps
learn?
Original Poem (Footsteps)
11–9–2025
Where’s the peace I was promised
My tears flowing down
When I hear footsteps
I wipe them away
Ashamed
Of life
Of what pain has done to me
The footsteps
They haunt me
In my dreams
In my life
In my head
