How long do we wait? <br />You - for that perfection painted <br />with lost heart's roses. <br />Me - for another small glimpse <br />of the true you. <br /> <br />Everything rusts, fades with tears <br />long streaked like watercolours <br />left in cold rain. <br />Time captures timeless dreams, <br />locks rusted memories, <br />throws the key. <br /> <br />Another wasted fantasy <br />keeps us carefully stitched together <br />like wounded, broken dolls. <br />Once perfect porcelain smiles <br />faded with time. <br /> <br />8/3/09<br /><br />Viola Grey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/faded-9/
