To Photograph a Memory
To photograph memory's carousel
And remember the why, where my thoughts form
Expose the photo where love says farewell
Even cold eyes are a memory warm
No reason to look at the shadowed ground
Nor understand the judgment of my thought
To reflect on the photograph now found
And touch the season when her love was sought
Know love's memory can be wound around
As the days we spent held no guarantee
The dark we faced when storms formed to surround
And create a lost world we both would flee
A rush through years of a photo held on
A memory kept my eyes looked upon
