The Face at the Bottom of My Album - BeeWaee
When you scroll far enough
There's a face
At the bottom of your album
Not forgotten
Just buried under busy days
The background is blurred
The date isn't even clear
But the eyes are that version of me
Look straight at me
I used to meet old photos with regret first
Why did I do that?
Why didn't I do better?
But today is different
Today my head nods
Before my mind can argue
You worked so hard
You held on for so long
Those words arrive before the image does
That version of me
Even when smiling
Was carrying something heavy
Trying to look okay
Lifting the shoulders out of habit
And still
That face stayed standing
That alone is extraordinary
No awards
No applause
Just a person finishing what had to be done
A photo can hold time
But it can't hold the whole heart
The heart can be rewritten
By the person I am today
So I speak to that face
Without advice
Without answers
It's okay
You did well back then
I see you now
The face at the bottom of my album
Proof that I made it through some days
I want to offer recognition before regret
Youth wasn't only beautiful
It was reckless and rushed
Trying to do too much alone
And somehow you didn't stop
Now I won't hide that face
It isn't something to be ashamed of
It is time
And time made me
The face at the bottom of my album
Today I tell you
You worked so hard and
Thank you
And with that I hold the person I am now
A little more gently
