The Picture :(

The Picture :(

A Poem by Courtney Elizabeth

 Looking down at the picture, 

my eyes scanning across all of the past players.

My eyes meet her face,

Liz.

I feel my eyes start to water up,

but I hold the painful tears back,

afraid of crying in front of my music class. 

I stand there,

for what seems like hours,

I then look out the window before me,

I look up into the sky wondering,

wondering if she could see everything that is happening right now.

I believe that she can.

My heart pounding slower and slower,

every time I look down at her blank face.

My head gets heavier,

my heart gets emptier,

my mind gets blanker.

I feel one small tear roll down my face.

I quickly wipe it away with my shaking arm.

I can't help it,

more tears come down my motionless face.

I look away from the picture,

afraid that I would break down in more tears,

any second now.

I gently put the picture down on the boxes,

beside the filling cabinet.

I look once more before I close the cabinet draw.

I walk back towards the rest of,

my class mates,

as I wipe one more tear from my eyes...
