RE: Why Photographs Are Simply Heartbreaking (Day 16)

in #poetry • 7 years ago

Already they gape into the future
at their own fossilized memories

I would like to think this as a paradox, it is beutifully put

whether jealously guarded in a chest of drawers

Hehe, whether guarded we just smile for the cameras, covering the million things we want not seen

I love your way with words. Your command of the language makes every thought you express beautiful.

Cheers <3

    Thank you, for your close, encouraging reading. Your words remind me of a song I admire, by Morrissey, The Harsh Truth of the Camera Eye:

    Your eyes signal pain
    because of the strain
    of smiling
    the harsh truth of the camera eye

    telling you all
    that you never wanted to know
    showing what
    you didn't want shown

    Again, much gratitude for your attention and support, @fego _/|\_
