The photographer cradles the world with two eyes
With a lens that is only a reflection of life
Sitting alone in a warm afternoon
Reasoning a composition that is already there
Another thing only known
Is that our world may seem cold
But the things that are truly beautiful after all
Are revealed implicitly
Each exposure of light cannot replace the joy of your smile
What lonliness missed, God will tell me in a future day
Catch the tears that may seem to fall from an unemotional heart
And let them scatter in a pattern of expression you might find pleasing
The photographer postulates in his mind again
A message of images to write
Unequal terms it may seem to pass
But it only gives reason to be truly happy after all
Even though the twilight overwhelms
And may dissolve our sunlight away
It will return in one day after a tomorrow distant
Seeking love truthfully
Only a plan from above can explain things beyond what we know
Even if your eyes can't see what I express, I can still touch you softly
Seek the emotion of ourselves in the wake of His heart
While catching the exposures of our minds one by one from the stars

I like the soft way this reads, but I'm not keen on the length of some of the lines, perhaps they could have been broken into shorter ones .. understand this is purely a personal preference.
Your word usage is excellent and the first stanza is just so very good .. overall I like this, but can't get away from the line lengths.
