Lock Step
She walked a mile in her own shoes Threw them away in a dumpster alongside the wave swept rocks She knew the way The act of being lost was nothing new She ate her indecision The fruit tasting a tad sour She locked step with his He glanced with too trustful eyes She wanted more The wind kicked harder She hugged herself against the frigid ...
Change Gears
