Empty footsteps

Your footsteps
were onced filled,
but that changed
life changed
when you left
it became
cold, dark, and
miserable
The Earth was flooded by
tears and blood
when you let
the tiger GO
your footsteps
became empty
filled no more

When I was 10 and in the 5th grade my uncle Dave committed suicide two weeks before Christmas. It took a HUGE toll on me and my family and then a week before Easter my uncle Denny died of a blood clut. Since then I have never been the same.
