i want to document my life in pictures
i want to document my life in pictures
thats all it is
i want pictures that will make your smile cry
i'll take pictures of your face, the red
it will turn right before you sob
pictures of your eyes
the gold they shine when you smile
the shadows on your face while you sleep
your feet when they stop dancing
pictures arent worth 1000 words
they are worth 1000 songs
26 flowers
43 blankets
80 rainbows
and a couple million markers
i want pictures of your lips when
you wear your sunglasses
i want black and whites
of pink toenails
i want pictures of you when you are at the height of passion
green and white striped t-shirts
over exposed hair
bruised knees
cartoon bandaids
cold noses
ice cream likced off fingers
i want you waxing a taxi cab
frozen forever
i want pictures of your stutter
your mouth desperatly trying to form the words
i want to see your teeth when you smell white out
i want a picture of your elbows
when youre picking flowers
i see your eyebrows when you kiss her
pictures are perfect even when they arent.
