Looking through
old-fashioned photoalbums
I anxiously await your face
to unleash the memories
we could have had
We stare at the same sun
at slightly different angles
in a world where tears are more
than a tool of trade
perhaps that's enough
I put away the photographs
restless
and swing open a window
to let out the tension
A thousand pixels
can only say so much
and the smiles
are up to us
to interpret.
I love[d] you...

Very good poem, presents some good images of longing and sadness, especially the second stanza, which I think is brilliant. I think as has been said, that this poem balnces the feelings of love and sadness very well.
good write =]
