[ Eyes bright and wide ]

Eyes bright and wide

Just an average girl

Or maybe no

Maybe more

Just a silly girl

Who enjoyed

Gum
Boys
Talking
Laughing
Gossiping

Or more

Just smiling for the camera

or putting an act on for the lense

Is she just a girl?

Or is she so much more

Maybe she has
more then just

a smile
good looks
easy charm
bright eyes
confidence

Possibly she has

hopes
dreams
ambitions

Perhaps behind her smile
she has

Fears
doubts
insecurities

After all it's just one picture

One moment

Captured by a lense

The unseen shows much more

The things you couldn't

capture with a camera

you'd never see her cry

gentle tears
Happy tears
angry tears
heartbreaking tears

You'd never see her move:

swaying to soft music her face in his chest
Jumping to loud music her friends at her side
Running quickly in the rain
strolling slowly in the sunshine
Clumisily jumping into the pool
Gracefully swimming underneath the water

you'd never hear her speak:

yelling angrily
singing softly
nervously whispering
wittily spilling out comebacks
fearfully breathing out quite words
tearfully letting him go
bitterly sending him away

You'd never hear her laugh:

sarcastic laughter
bitter laughter
happy laughter
nervous laughter
relieved laughter

With just a smiple snapshot
You'd just see a simple girl

You wouldn't
sense her hurt
feel her tears
See her tears
hear her laughter
feel her glow

All you'd get
would be
a  simple
image

And nothing else

Author notes

I wasn't sure how to end it. So did you think it was alright. Wasn't sure what to put.
