Photograph

by Allison   Feb 24, 2006


Look at the girl
How she sits so still
Motionless in her depression
Not knowing her will

Silently watching
Eyes open wide
Never does she blink
So her feelings she doesn't hide

Shes looking through the glass
At the people that surround her
How they stare at her helplessly
Wishing she was there

But she just sits there silently
With the smile upon her face
To bad that its a mask
And she holds it firmly in place

That was in the past
As the scene sadly shows
In the photograph she will sit forever
With the sadness nobody knows

    Wow. I feel like the whole time you had this total idea of what you were writing. Which is good, obviously. I really like the flow of it all. Some places it was rough, but it sounded intentional. 5/5
