Façade colored with
The brightest colors
Yet, they look lackluster
Every year a fresh coat
Making it a ritual
To paint away the yesteryear
When blemishes appear
Once the colors loved
Now, fade away from memory
Layers upon layers
Trying to hide realities
Fault lines and cracks
Making the walls weaker
No one cares anymore
Not time to sit and ponder
Colors can only hide temporarily
In the long run
Even the brightest colors
Will fade in front of, true colors
Façade with discordant hues
Trying to wipe away
The discordant world
It may take years, or generations
But façade will be exposed
