Footsteps

I follow in your footsteps,
Through the woods
Wondering who’s been here before,
With you
In the woods
And whose footsteps
Am I really walking in?
Do I really care?
I am here
They are not
I cannot find any reassurance
In that
Though I try hard to.
I give up on thought
And turn to nature
To nurture me.

Very true. Even when we are surrounded by Nature, human nature can get in the way.
