Written by Jacob Ibrag
I took notice of your stare, a fraction of a
second but I caught it. An inquiring look to see
how I was doing, to see if I was happy. Fraction of a
second, you smiled in the wind, whispering something
I couldn’t hear. Connected to dissect each others grins.
Surviving the void we adopted when we diverged and
fled. Fraction of a second, reliving our laughs and our
fights. We collided, we said goodbye. Fraction of a
second, enough for now. Enough until it’s not.


Ooh lovely. Love how the unspoken can mean so much.

I simply loved the play of words. The moment of togetherness before separation. The whole gamut of emotions yet so simply expressed. Mighty words.

Whenever I see something like ‘photographer unknown’ I feel like it’s my serious job to hunt down the photographer using Image Search on Google xDDD ANyway, I believe the credit is to Lauren Jarvis-Gibson -http://thoughtcatalog.com/lauren-jarvis-gibson/2016/06/to-my-fellow-women-prince-charming-isnt-going-to-save-you/processed-with-vsco-with-a9-preset-4/
The poem reminded me of childhood friends, how we’ve become so distant
