The Photographs

The lost photographs
memories of the past
coming up behind us
catching up so fast

freezing the moment
keeping it unreal
capturing time on paper
its something you have to steal

some in color
some in black and white
some miss matched all around
some loose some so small and tight

taken at different angles
a different story for each one
keeping the memory hidden
the pictures almost done

the photos are taken away
each have something to say
nothing in the picture changes
just everything in it everyday

we keep the photographs for thoughts
of what we missed and what we forgot
if it wasn't for the pictures
we would think something different then what they're not
