Our old
footprints are now
history. All of them
had to give in to the tide,
To be washed
slowly from
the
shores.
Now we must leave new ones;
I know in my heart where I stand.
In turn I remind you gently, As not
to push or pull-- Its always your
choice where you tread. How you
might cross the sand in this
lifetime; Will you even set
a foot or even
a toe upon it--
Following the
same path
as before?
Or maybe this time
do you choose to veer
Away? Pick another fate.
Once more just a you
And once more an I
No more we.

well this was going to be under visual poetry but for some reason you're unable to submit image files to the visual poetry category at the moment 
i've been told it will be fixed.
this is the last time i try to type up something in a footprint shape - it worked fine in word but then when copy/pasting it into sta.sh things all went screwy
but its uploaded now

Yeah, for concrete poetry (which is what this is, idly, not visual poetry, but the current definitions) it's easier to make a pdf or screencapture of your work in Word (or whatever) and upload that as your deviation. (I learned that the hard way working on [link] ).
Normally I don't like concrete poetry as much, but here it does nicely reinforce the theme, not just by providing an image but also by shaping the way the poem is read.
