Looking At Our Picture

Looking at our picture
I can see it now
in your eyes,

the torment of what you've done
the horror of the pain you caused
but in the picture I'm smiling

I do not know it yet
my heart is still in tacked 
our love flowing through me
So ignorant of the future

Looking at our picture
I miss that girl so free from pain
un-knowing of what's to come
Trusting with her whole being

Looking at our picture
that girl is me 
but i am no longer that girl
