Leave nothing but footprints,
Take nothing but pictures,
Kill nothing but time.


I'm alone, it's just guideless me;
I don't belong to this crowded street,
To all the places where others fit;
Lost in silence, finding trails,
Once the voice you follow fails;
Can you hear all the screams,
People yell,
All the secrets never meant to tell;
Guilty tongues taken me to the wrong hemisphere,
I was different, lost again,
As never before, so far and so near;
I was dazzled, fallen down,
Mastered runaways,
Didn’t notice time,
Solely places change.

I like your use of imagery.  Usually listing seems to be draging on forever, but in this case it actually works because all the words harmonize to create a larger and more vivid picture. Nice work.
