Notes About The Poem
Horsham 27At one time, when writing poetry was as simple and basic as breathing, I used photographs as the way to bring the words out of the shadows and onto paper or the computer screen, resulting in thousands of poems, many I have never even read my own self since writing them.
It all started with one photograph, and this is the very first poem coming from that photograph the very few minutes after I snapped it at a football game. The title I gave the Photograph at the time was Horsham27.jpg.

It stops my heart sometimes,
just seeing you or knowing you are near,
or somewhere else I might have been,
part of the past but never far from here.
Deep in your eyes where there's no end to see,
I lose myself to life's great tragedy
and you've become my very greatest fear.
Your photograph's forever part of me
and has become the last thing
my mind will ever see.
