Footprints of My Life

Footprints of My Life

The footprints in the sand on the beach align
And seem to condense my life into a line

Sometimes it curves, or gets lost in the tide
But I know somewhere, the marks are there to reside

As I look back, I see steps that I’ve taken
And old memories of my life begin to awaken

Each step is different from the following one
Trying to take the same exact step can never be done

So the only option in my journey is to move on
Going forward with my life, proud and strong

Sand remnants on my feet stay along for the ride
And my ambition to take on life becomes my guide

No longer will I allow worries, trouble, or even strife
On the journey that makes the footprints of my life
