two tracks in the snow

for as long as i can remember

every time I turned around

my tracks stood stark and alone

the only imprints on the snowy landscape

but now when I look back

the snowflakes gently float down

filling not just my tracks

but yours right next to mine as well

matching it step for step

adding so much more

to what was a beautifully bleak snapshot

I’m still not completely sure why

your tracks joined mine on this journey

or when they’ll turn from my landscape

but I am grateful to share the journey

with you
