Faded

faded…faded…shadows
are wearing our fathers’ shoes
moths are sniffling footprints
jagged steps
ragged breath
legged breathe
faded…faded…
we are shallow waters
melting silence into tides
we, sands weaved
in seashells
are turned in out
a funeral dress
faded…faded…
we see no dreams
nothing grows in our mouth
hands are livid
gods are silent
faded…faded…everything
