Fluorescent Adolescent

A series of colors

Filters, sharpness, lighting

Holding back a feeling

Fighting

Hiding

Not wanting to know what’s going through

Your mind

Wasting time

Timeless

More than just black and white

Kodak moments

Simple tokens

Unbroken instances forever burned into our minds

Pale skin

Reflecting the sun

So brilliantly shining

Blurring the little imperfections

Upon my coat of armor

Nothing more than a

Fluorescent adolescent

Her luminosity shooting through the camera’s eye

A diamond with a certain desire to dazzle

But the girl behind the photo is left in a frazzle

She tries not to unravel

Photographs that allow a certain chill

A certain feeling

But it all seems obscured

And I’m beginning to have a hard time

Finding the difference between

The memories we made

And the hopes I had
