Marilyn brought her camera
To art today
A laminated piece of paper
That hung from a Mickey Mouse lanyard
Read
Ridge Spring yearbook club
Click
Her shutter went off
Every few seconds
Click
A few girl talking
A boy washing brushes
A group listening to music
But not me
Click
She tried once
And turned the camera at me
But why would you want a picture of me?
I think that my mugshot in the yearbook is
more than enough
Because pictures are forever
If I blink
If I turn
It's ruined
And that's how she will
Remember me
And that's not
How she will
Remember me
As she took a shot
Of a group
I gazed over her shoulder
She didn't even notice
She walked off
And said nothing
I wish she had
I'm glad she hadn't
I wish she did
But she didn't
And neither did I
Click
Maybe she is thinking
They same thing
Maybe she wished I had
Said something
Maybe I should have
But I didn't
And neither did she
