To The Girl In The Photograph

You were the girl in the photograph,
As beautiful as the words written by the holograph.

I remember us smiling and laughing
together,
But now it seems we are on opposite ends of the tether.

We're really just strangers, now only figments in each others heads,
We both agreed that we needed to cut all the mental threads.

We shared a lot of moments which where happy and sad,
I'll even be staying behind, while you walk up the steps at grad.

I'm glad you and him are still together,
And I guess it's best for us to remain at opposite ends of the tether.

Even though we don't talk, I still care,
I told you I would be there with you, But now I shall be in the shadows, you probably won't even stop and give me the stare.

I know you will go far with what ever you do,
And now you can finally see that I am not feeling so blue.

I've recovered, just like you had said,
My wounds will no longer bleed the colour red.

But this is all fine, it was the choice we both chose,
And I guess it was just another chapter of love, grief, and agony finally coming to a close.

Amazing job with this and I must say, some people just aren't meant to be together. Perhaps things didn't work out between you two for a reason and it was probably for the best, for both of you. I always feel that nowadays, relationships are just temporary things and that many take advantage of them, their meaning and how precious they are. Why can't it still be like back in the old days where love was actually real and people understood its meaning and did whatever they could to keep it? They would do whatever they could to show their special person that they were the world and more. It's sad how love today seems to have a totally different light shining on it.

I agree with you on that. That's just how bad society has become
