FOOTPRINTS

author
Marion

She suckled on tears
Was weaned on despair
Fed on depression
Filled up with care

​​​​​​Her sister was sadness
Melancholy her friend
Her feet walked in anguish
Her footprints still there

Her mind lives in darkness
She no longer fights
She still struggles for reason
A meaning
A light.
Marion Price
(2018)
