Faded Words

Faded words
upon a page
written long ago
illegible
to others eyes
yet these words
are inscribed within
our hearts
placed safely there
to carry us each
moment of the day
until we find
swift passage of time
created faded words
illegible to others
only you and I still
know the value
the promises the love
strengthened through
the years solidifying
what now appear as
faded words
Happy Valentine's Day

Handwritten love letters? Do such things still exist? I have a file folder full of love email .....

It doesn't have the same ring, does it?

quilldancer, a card purchased had faded messages and I just ran with the idea. Letters do hold a certain mystic, not to give my age away but remember when letter writing was an art form, a token of love shared...How are things in paradise for I wish you well :)

what words and letters written,
shall remain living forever,
in the wind,
in memories
in our eyes
in your writings
for the future.
