So many memories from this life And some will be forgotten. "A picture's worth a thousand words," Some say, and so it's true. A picture is a freeze in time; A word, that can't be spoken. A picture is a little seawater, Held still in a jar, While the sea continues on, Moving, changing constantly. Pictures are too clear sometimes-- Too harsh, revealing details We left blurred in our minds.

Picture
So many memories from this life And some will be forgotten. "A picture's worth a thousand words," Some say, and so it's true. A picture is a freeze in time; A word, that can't be spoken. A picture is a little seawater, Held still in a jar, While the sea continues on, Moving, changing constantly. Pictures are too clear sometimes-- Too harsh, revealing details We left blurred in our minds.
