Graduation Picture

Contributed by CodyJ on Tuesday, 15th February 2005 @ 10:49:54 PM in AEST
Topic: SecretLove

Rooms were made to be lived in,
but I am never going to be here again
because I am going home.
Bags are packed as I take my seat
alone by my computer screen,
I am not going to spend my time online,
a little lower is my destination.
A picture serves a constant reminder
of where I can go to find some peace,
solicit some joy from my reveries,
think of a new life with new memories
I could be reflecting upon now.
I'm thinner now than I was then
I was hungrier then than I was when
I put the picture in its frame.
I left it here to remind me of who I am now,
what I wanted then, and what I'm wanting now
is that girl in the pictue staring back at me,
now and then all over again I go through pains
of seeing those smiling faces and all that remains
is a moment too faint now to see clearly.
If the world was a fair place,
there'd be love and possesions to go around.
But as I've wandered, I have found
that the world is unfair, I stare at the picture,
brightening my desk,
the rest comes as easy as what comes next
the passage of time in that context
leaves me with not a word to say,
as I pray to go back to that picture day.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
