The Picture

Look at this picture

So lively and boisterous

Feels like it was captured just yesterday

Everyone was so happy

Everyone was so healthy

Enjoying the air that we shared

Stuck together by the similarities of heart

The beautiful essence was there

Not the one in th living room

The one in the frame

The joyous nature of my family

 

Look at this picture

Not as pretty and exuberant

I wish it was captured yesterday

When eveyone was happy

When everyone was healthy

Now they're broken

Torn apart by their differences in morality

The beautiful essence has disappeared

Not the one in the frame

The one in the living room

The joyous nature that was my family
