Fate's Footfalls
Numbing echoes of vain haunting footfalls
Mute lingerings of ghosts and lovers past
A troubled hindsight of sleepless darkness
Buried forgotten times of long ago
Appeared the footsteps of fate, I followed
A path oozing myrrh and serenity
Leading me straight into your warm embrace
My world is now a blissful paradise
