Lonely is the road I travel,
When I have no where to go.
Two feet alone, stumbling along the gravel,
Wishing someone would save me, my hero.
It’s the time I spend on my own,
That makes me appreciate the power of two.
But when four footprints are shown,
I think of me and you.

I really liked it! I especially liked the parting image of the four footprints. The only thing that didn't work was the "two feet alone". Since there are two, they can't really be alone. Would you mind checking out some of my work?
