Footprints

“Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts..and we are never, ever the same.”

Moment

I took a moment for myself and sat on the beach

and stared at the ocean & at the people walking on the pier.

A slight smile crossed my face
as I thought of that person that I left behind

So many years ago...
