Invisible Trail

My dirty converse

leave behind an invisible trail

Marking the steps that I have taken

Across this earth 

Imprinting a subtle trace-

 


My mark is a silent one

It lingers if you listen

Stay still

Can you hear it?

It seeps into your skin

settles in your heart 

Enough to sink in deep

Does it feel like the morning wind

Or a midnight storm?

 


Does it feel like enough for you to feel it at all?
