Polaroid Words. ~ Cami Krueger {Poem}

Polaroid

Words.

Photographs.

Capturing precise moments;

a detailed snap shot of time.

This moment here?

Devised of everything past.

How quickly it fades into

yesterday,

last week,

last year,

a lifetime ago.

We spoke of forever.

Yet gradually,

forever

turned out to be

a flimsy, faded Polaroid

of me with big hair

and you in your hot pink tank top.

We shared smiles the size of empty promises.

How beautiful this continuous change.

Rather, how simple it is

here, between every

single

syllable.
