she faded

CHANGEinWAVES

in the corner
she stands alone
closing her eyes
only to laugh
at herself

shining through the shades
the sun streams in
fading the colors
upon the walls

take the photos down
reveal the underneath
bright like new
that is how he did it

took away what she knew
out of the fading sun
revealed what was there
underneath and
always a part of her
the bright colors
of the paint

someday

perhaps

those colors will fade too.
