The Photograph.
Frozen, as though carved
from hard granite.
Silent, like the stillness of
an imposing forest.
Their eyes tell a story, spun from silk -
cobwebbed fables, hidden from the world.
(Hidden from you)
An unspoken connection, bonds incognito.
Strangely adjacent, yet beautifully entwined,
two beings speak a language
only they can comprehend.
The flurry of movement surrounding them
go oddly unnoticed.
What matters
What matters
most
Was captured by that rushing flare.
