Watch Your Step

A poem

--

foot prints in the sand- you can see the feet of someone walking out of the image

Walking the beach
I follow the trail of someone
else’s footprints

I step into them

desperately
waiting

hoping
praying

to fall
into their life

but they are never the right fit

too masculine
to hold my lightness

too feminine
to carry my sin
