Words on Faded Paper...


Pages cause confusion
as the words cross the page
one's mind goes left
when meaning might be right

Words can sound harsh
when the writer is really low
again, words on a page
takes own shape in one's mind

Being too judgmental as one walks
questions in the mind they stumble
who miss understands it confuses
the questionable reading mind

Take pages with a grain of salt
read and be somberly calm
for words on faded paper
could be a moment of delight
