They say pictures capture a thousand words. But what about a thousand moments?
There's a picture of you and I.
It's my favorite but it only captures a moment. The picture itself is beautiful but how it was taken is what steals my breathe away.
You were trying to make me smile, and I was trying to hide my laughter.
Then you caught me off guard.
Brought me to your arms and held me.
Shaking with laughter you had someone take a picture.
I've never been one for the camera but this wasn't the same.
It wasn't posed, it wasn't framed.
It was real.
Between you and I.
There's no words for this moment out of a thousand.
That takes away my ability to breathe.
