Won't find it on a wall
Or covering holes in doors
Not readily available
Nor hidden in plain sight
Contains many images
Some darkened and some light
Sweet snapshots that depict
The way things ought to be
And yes there are some pictures
That only I can see
Blurred polaroids of loved ones
Are contained therein
It's not exactly naughty
Nor is it free from sin
A smorgasbord of memories
That I like to keep
I sometimes like to view them
As I fall asleep
A collage of a lifetime
Pinned on mental wall
If you care, I'll let you share
They're at my beck and call
So search among the backdrops
This scene you will not find
Because my favourite poster
Exists only in my mind

A Distant Memory
#Household In a rusty vintage blue wooden frame, there it stood a distant life I thought I would always remember. So young, So innocent, So free, So much simpler, And so different from this moment.
