A Step Through Time

Images all around my face
Every one fading in and out
Each a personal memory
But none with meaning for me

Once I thought they captured my life
Reflecting my precious moments
Images on which I could reflect and ponder
But it was all just an illusion

Moments of joy only lived in my mind
I could not see the pain in others
The pain they feel so deep inside
Now shakes me to my core

My own pictures mock and taunt me
What I thought was joy never existed
What I thought was love was only a lie
My false memories obscured by truth

So, I put away each memory
Removing each picture from it's frame
For these images mean nothing to me
They capture a life that was only a lie
