 "Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes" 


surrounded by pictures of the past,

her heart was torn

between crying over a lost love

or reminiscing about the good times they had shared.


she picked up a photograph and laughed,

laughed at the irony of the situation.

he told her they'd keep their love 

inside a photograph

and it played out to be true.

too true for her liking.


 "I swear it will get easier" 


but it didn't

not until she saw him again

standing by the lamppost down on 6th street

looking down at a small photograph 

that was in his hand.


about: I took inspiration from "Photograph" by Ed Sheeran. I loved how the song was focused on showing the bitter sweetness of heartbreak rather than that of just loss.
