Snapshot of Love

SNAPSHOT OF LOVE

fell in love with a boy     who dreamed of love
i hold his picture to my eye         level with the sky

his picture placed in a stranger’s album
let’s call them 	                   dad and mom

i peer into his innocent eyes and smile
    before he’d walk me      down the aisle

      strangers held his heart in their hands
he’d answer fervently to their commands

looks about seven or eight     to me
            before this boy took me on a date

                                 after all of this time’s gone by
i see him as a child          tears puddle in my eyes
