A name you could never say.

Say today the picture changes, 

the landscape conjures a cloud. 

The dark replaces the sun, 

the never replaces the now. 

Say if the frame becomes a weakened hold,

say if you loved me.

would you question; 

Why?     When?      How?

So when the picture falls, 

when the grasp becomes a fragile clasp.

When the glass becomes nothing but a 

tainted shattered mask. 

Just say you loved me, 

Then,      There,     Tomorrow. 

Because say if tomorrow i'm not here, 

I'll be nothing more than just a word.

A name you could never say.

Good work, I really liked the third stanza. Everybody wears a mask to hide behind but sometimes it slips away to reveal our hidden truths.

Good job, Britt!
