The Photograph

The wedding photograph took centre stage Eight great years Two years gone now She had sort of moved on Slowly She gazed at the photograph So strange, it looked different It was as if he had taken two steps back from her She began to study the photograph again Maybe it was just that photograph She looked out some others It didn’t make sense He was behind or in the distance Moving out of her life She began to shake It didn’t make sense You can’t change photographs You just can't The family photo He was at the back Was she going crazy She grasped at the wedding photograph Watching as he slowly began to fade from view Was he punishing her Trying to tell her to move on She woke with a jolt Studying the room God, that was awful So awful She needed coffee, and quick The caffeine kicked in She spoke out loud Okay Tom, I finally take the hint Glancing at the photograph So strange she thought She wasn't in it.
