Photographs

She took off like a soaring dove

She still is my first and only love

If only history could be rewritten and memories could be altered

Then maybe our love would have never faltered

She brought me so much pain yet so much joy

Someone I could please, someone I could annoy

The path was paved for the greatest love story of all time

Until another could say: "she is mine"

Her love was like a ticking time bomb waiting to explode

The love I felt was trapped in my heart, waiting implode

We went our seperate ways, destiny's unfullfillment

I don't even have photographs to savour the moment

I never had so much love pulsing through my heart

There was too much of it, that's what tore us apart

Our love story makes me cry, makes me laugh

A painted and tainted photograph

In each other's eyes we used to stare

Now I see you in my sweetest dream and my worst nightmare

If we never meet again, that would be a shame

Photographs are memories, but I have an empty frame
