your picture

I look at your picture one last time
Before I put it away forever
I remember when I used to look at it
For comfort
To make me smile
To let me know someone was there
But your picture has been abused
Over used
You should have never posed
You shouldn't have allowed it
To fall in my possession
It softened my heart
And put it in danger
Now my vulnerable heart has been done
What was expected to be done
My fingerprints are permanent
Of where I held it so long
Please let this be a dream
I know you have my picture too
But you don't look at it like I do
