Living behind a lense
Memories flood my sight
Every little detail
Recovered in black and white.
A paper with a picture and a thought
Those times we'd shared back long ago beginning to fade and rot.
Remember the day I took these,
The pictures you've still yet to see?
I do. And so clearly, its almost like a dream.
My camera flashing left and right
Trying to get just the perfect angle but not just quite,
Your laughter and smiles caught on square
Looking over them makes me feel like Im back there.
Times have changed for you and I,
This is all I have left from that day we said goodbye.
Tears ran down my small pale face
Seeing you walk away going some other place.
I click the forward button and stop clicking
Seeing you has made time end its ticking.
There you are again like in every other photo
but in this one I am gone and you are sitting there alone playing with your own camera,
Just like I am right now.
The rest of the gallery is only everybody else
everyone but you you who are the only person I want to see right now.
Do you ever look through the past pictures
Or have you deleted them and made a solid wall?
Do you wonder about me?
Do you want to remember?
or just wish you could forget?
Do you even care at all?
I want to see you again but I am deathly afraid,
Will you be the same person from those memories we've made?
Is that to hard to arrange?
Just letting you know that Ive definitely changed.
Im done hiding behind this false veil
Im not the same person I used to be because now the happiness is real.
