The Walk

The little waves kissed my feet
and went back into the vastness of the ocean
just like the little incidents
little, but leave a mark..
Only the moisture remained..
As I walked along the shore..

Occasionally, a huge wave ventured, long enough
to drench me up to my knees and I staggered
Just like some great, unforgettable things
That leave me shaken up..
Only the sand remained stuck to my legs..
As I walked along the shore..

A few pieces of broken shell.. scattered
pricked my feet, making me jump
just like the hindrances
that made my life a challenge..
Only the pain remained..
As I walked along the shore..

My feet sunk into the wet sand
with each step..
As I pulled them out.. only to place them again..proceeding further..
As I looked back..
Only my foot prints remained..
As I walked along the shore..
