a sequence of thoughts about a photograph

I kept a picture of you
fuzzy edges
blurred colour across your hand
I took it and kept it
It makes me warm
And somewhat sad

do you know about this picture?
We took so many
Who would notice one gone?

The emotion breaks through the print
You were laughing - so much
It looks like tears
Sometimes I look at it and I see you crying
It gives me a strange unfamiliar comfort

I love this picture
the blurry out of focus darkness
It reminds me of the time I knew you were careless about what I thought
