Photograph

As I look into a photograph
I stare into time
Frozen for eternity
Thoughts, memories, feelings
Never changing, Never letting go
To reflect on the past
Through happiness and joy
Sorrow and Despair
Love and Loss
That one Moment is there
Trapped forever
In a photograph

This is my favorite so far. An excellent reflection on many emotions we can experience with a simple photo. Great work.
