Footprints

Many monsoons have, shed their tears

Changing into winters stern

They seem to depart

Soon as they arrive

Summers staying

For the longest time

Pouring fire, from clear skies

Sometimes drenched, shivering sometimes

Sweating profusely most of the times

Been waiting since the fateful day

At that place, you walked away

Guarding your fading footprints
