Tabula Rasa

Fresh new paint over
white washed walls.
Moving on to the next chapter.
"Chapter 25" - she wrote
on the blank walls.
Creating new pages
over the old ones.
But on certain days
when the angle is just right
and she squints her eyes
a little bit against the light;
she can still catch
a glimpse,
a trace,
of how these freshly painted walls
looked like once before.
