Your Footprints ( Lyrics)
English Poetry |
Oh Baby, Where did you disappear
Your footprints etched everywhere
In every nook and cranny
Deep in my mind
Also on the heart
Getting entwined
Tried to wipe them
Got a thick broom
Millions of them in
Such a small room
Oh Baby, Where did you disappear
Your footprints etched everywhere
Then I thought of
Whitewashing the walls
Wipe away everything
And then not recall
Remove all traces so
Heart cannot seize
Every single drop
In a cold freeze
Oh Baby, Where did you disappear
Your footprints etched everywhere
The waters are muddy
I cannot even see
FIlled with weeds
Algae and debris
Have lost my senses
And all my sleep
Just surprise me
With a sudden peep
Oh Baby, Where did you disappear
Your footprints etched everywhere
Dear Renu,
A good one. The only nit, as I see it, is “Deep in my mind
Also on the heart” . Heart and mind are the same, isn’t it?
Also read some of your other works. Good work. Keep it up.
Best wishes,
SK
@SK Iyer,
Hi, SK Iyer,
mind and heart the same? I don’t think so.
Without the conflict between them there would be very little poetry,

@Gion Gion,
Dear Renu.
Thanks. The doubt was because of a similar question I faced in a UK forum.
Best wishes,
SK
Renu,
liked this idea –
“Millions of them in
Such a small room”.

Renu, a nice departure from your style! When can we hear the podcast? 🙂
A lovely song resembling a lullaby, Renu.
