Timeworn Treasures

The clock with hands turned backward,
Chasing shadows in a twilight groove.

A single shoe, weathered and cracked,
Once danced upon the stars' whispers.

A moth-eaten book, the ink bleeds tales,
Of unfulfilled wishes grounded deep.

An old key, rusted yet hopeful,
Unlocking doors to dreams long buried.

Alone, yet connected; threads of fate intertwined,
In a fabric woven by ghosts of yesterday.
