The image is of nostalgic photos hanging on a wall

Dusty photos hang on the walls
Where reality’s silhouette calls

Her spinning wheel, her smile, and her soft hands
They were there first, where the hourglass stands

Now, cobwebs grow between the frames and windows
Where nostalgia dwells on the lunar shadows
