FOOTPRINTS OF THE PAST
Mysterious signs hidden
of dreams taking refuge
of love, joy and pain
looking through the dark
centuries of time
Trembling emotions of
magical hope
rare incredible promises
of life, and love crossing
to present times
pain and violence of
perpetual rebirth emerging
Memories retained
imposing brutally on the present
fragmenting the heart
perceptible only to those transcending
the pain
