Love Poem: The Aged Picture

The Aged Picture

For years I kept your picture
Since our dream bloomed
A happy family, we assumed 
Our hearts will bond together

Smiling in black and white  
Your soft voice resounding
I love you my darling
Everything will be all right

Your smile comes alive
Shaky hand touches your lip
My whisky glass nearby flips
Memento suddenly deprived

With tissue I start dabbing
To save your lovely face
Even it left slight smear trace
In my mind you're still smiling
