My Footsteps

My footsteps 

Looking back at the background 
The footsteps I created 
Memories began to flash back like they are present 
All the deeds and the said thought 
All the vows and promises signed down 
And all those hopes and wishes envied at

With the intention I had and the amour I put on
Back in my mind I knew it wasn't easy but my foolish pride led to it
For the earning of the heart that was beating so dearly I dived in 

But wait, what was I diving into..  I just thought of it now 
I forgot that once the glass is broken not even glue can stick it back 
I ignored my eyes now they have turned into a water fountain 
I stretch my hands forth gosh so much shaking 
Afraid to reflect back it's a nightmare 
Scared to step out, only a string I am left with to hang on 
Windows shut down I might join the wind collision 
Down locked up I might be snatched away 
Roof tightened up to get the sun out um so ashamed 
The remaining heart pieces that blobs within 
That fierce sword that slew it through, no mercy 
Leaving one half, the other side is a mystery 
Every beat, then the silence wait 
Waiting for the response, teardrop 
Tears rolls down for the is no one to comply with 
But dust and dirt down the valley as the eye peeks
Deep down there across the river, 
Beneath the tree, among the green lilies 
There she stands,
And through my mind words flash by, 
Simply saying, love is war...
