I click on the album
And am assaulted by smiles
Without time
They are all there
Still,
Amongst colours and shapes
Looking back without seeing
Lifeless, yet move something
Deep inside me
I move closer to the past
Between clicks and pages
I caress a young face
Between a sigh and a skipped beat
They cannot wave me goodbye
My beloveds
From their pixel prisons
But I sense gladness
Upon seeing me like this
The nostalgia overflows
The taste of salt
On my lips
Melancholy and I promise
To return
I close the page and feel
I am one with the past
the album
this is a great poem, looking in the album.
memories always flood our minds when we
do so. childhood, sweethearts, friends,
and family remain a big part of our life
forever. We remain in the past with them.

Beautiful and moving...to say the least.
