Framework

Picture this… Born 1959 Living 50 years Not remembering half Picture this… Looking at old photos Living 50 years Not remembering half Picture this… Pictures of others Where are you? Not being in more than half Picturing pictures Of my youth Searching for the key Not remembering, where to look? Found the books Pictures seen Frame by frame I glance Out of focus they all seem Present doesn’t connect to past Lines have all but eroded Discolored images, torn edges Inability to renew Those are just pictures Lingering in my mind Connection is not lost Time needed to mend Lines may have faded Images slightly darkened Renew the pictures in my mind Jesus Christ, come shine on me
