Once Upon A Time

Missing image
Ink still eloquent,
lays weathered.

Lost dreams
now faceless emotions,
bound to yesterday.

    Your first line is perfect. It shines with the very eloquence you speak of. Beauteous! And the whole work is very poignant. Well done.

    I read your words and they made me think of all the dreams and wishes written on pieces of paper then hidden away. Seemingly forgotten, only to be found again and all those emotions come rushing back.
    Good luck in the contes.

    Simple, yet thought provoking...It makes me think about how we seem to try and hang onto the past through words on paper and how futile that effort can be at times...
    If I may, I would suggest using "bound" instead of "binding" or maybe removing "to"
