My walls are bare
I have not hung a thing
A glassy eyed stare
Is the offering I bring
But then I think of Pictures
I have a picture of life
Fullness, Romance, Sensuality
I reach for that image
So much drama blocks serenity
Years, Tears, Fears, Sinceres
All sweethearts of another day
My stare takes a blink I hear the jeers
So much was wasted away
In the corner of the room
Is a solitary box
Holding pictures I just can't see
Memories unfolded from dusty doom
Thoughts that are better left be
Masocistic me has to look in
Like an addiction saying one more time
Yes I give in open the top
Knowing old pictures I'll find
Crazy Days. Lazy days
Who iIn heremay i find
Loveing Faces Different Places
To face this is doing my time
Oh Know Look here
It's my smiling little Liss
She shattered by a Mom's cruel way
I tear as I see her so happy so small
Happier then, than today
Selfish held her at bay
What's this?
another picture
A beauty laying naked on the Mexican Shore
I was touched then but more loss
She's not on earth anymore
Oh know it's another
Dream face from the day
The lady with the raven flowing locks
Can't hang this either no I must not
She too climbed up heaven's blocks
Is there anything here
As I dig dig dig
Why do I even have this
Maybe I should hang that
A sarcastic lift
Not anyone I ever miss
One more try and that's it
The wall can stay bare
Fishing for just the right shot
Yes I did I can't believe the pull
It's a picture of you that I got
So NOW I can hang it
Now I can stare
The stare just may turn to a dream
Yes now your face looks down at me
Things aren't as bad as they seem
No things aren't as bad as they seem

This is a very bueatiful poem. Memory lane is always hard. The song "The way we were" comes to mind
"Shattered pictures of the times we left behind. Shattered pictures of the memories of the way we were" |
