Faded Time

An old photograph of old, faded time.
A capture of life with many vibrant colors.
Some cherished in heart, some long gone
Shades of time dripping on white papers.

I know, this world was never meant for
A dreamer. Wasted life on a wishful try.
Truth comes in much, much harder ways. 
Cascade of truth has a painfully deep cry.

I could still wish, only to convince a talk,
I fancy a silent observation will not harm.
Some surreal tunes never to fade in time 
Even if a world could change the norm.

And I was thinking to make a postcard
only to stick the old photograph there.
And I witnessed a butterfly on the grass
To spread the news in this morning air.
