The way you laughed when others laughed was Amwelcoming

On a picture that I found in the attic on the ground of your old place

It's black and white and in this light it's hard to tell

A picture in its place

It's been a year and now I fear the fade is on

It's the slowly turning down of the well acquainted sound of your old voice

The way you laughed when others laughed was welcoming

It's the way I see you look at whoever it was that took this photograph
