Used to be magic, hocus pocus
Now I’m just sitting with life out of focus
Never getting the full shot just a blurry face
Running out of film and simply taking up space
Better tech becoming more and more relevant
Meanwhile I’m still just stuck here sitting in development
The stress here and there is smudging the view
I’m not quite able to get that good side of you
Try to get the pic but it’s gone before the flash
Just wasting away that film, burning it into ash
The shutter is merely going too fast
Never going to get that photo to last
Once used for happy memories now lies dormant in dust
Easy to be forgotten about and left out to be consumed by rust

Beware the blinding flash, just before the shutter.


Watch how you pose, unlike any other.
