Sitting on the wall, looking out to the world
A picture sits in its frame.
To some just a photograph
But to me a sign of hope.
Hope that there is still love.

And in that photo sits a family of five,
All smiling and laughing, having the time of their lives.
When the camera clicked,
It felt like time ticked
slower than ever before.

This family has a lot to be thankful for,
Their house with a roof,
The places they go,
And their love that is bulletproof.

The picture may fade but the memories will stay,
Forever and ever in my heart.
Time goes on, of course it does,
But this picture will live without end.
