Picture...

by SplitSided   May 28, 2005


Times have changed and so did we.
But in your eyes the only person that changed is me.
Went from so close but so far away.
And now face to face you don't have a thing to say.
The picture of me and you under the bridge brings me back.
But in our present status it fades to black.
I said I'm right here if you need me.
Well now I need you but it isn't easy to see.
Things have fogged over.
And we haven't gotten closer.
I pull you closer.
You push me away.
I look at our pictures and don't know what to say.
The thing that hurts the most.
Is how me and you were close.
Now your gone.
And I know where I went wrong.
I never told you I loved you.
And now there's nothing I can do.
This picture of us on prom night.
Brings me back when things were right.
You were happy.
I was too.
But now here I am in a world without you.
This scar is running deep.
It haunts me in my dreams in my sleep.
It's always in the back of my mind.
And the thoughts and memories aren't hard to find.
The spraypaint will erase my final memory.
And from then on it'll just be me.
Change will hit me for the last time.
And us being apart the blame is mine.
If your reading this I love you with everything I've got.
And everything I'm not.
Lately misery has had you in it's hold.
That look on your face when you see me has gotten old.
And I have to admit.
I'm tired of seeing it.
The smiles on our faces aren't replacable over night.
That's why I'm writing this to see if I can make it right.
This picture screams memories to my face.
So I hide from it and put it in a dark place.
Will this change how it makes me feel.
No but I can lie to myself and say it isn't real.
The frame is empty.
I tear the picture in half and look at me.
Silence has a hold on me.
But the silence comes from what I see.
I was happy in that picture....
