In her diary
are photographs
of some people she's known
Stuck with tape
to the page
and written beneath are words
For these people she's known
these people she's known
written in ink
simple words
the kind you find sometime
written in stone
written in stone
In her diary
are chapters
of a book she wrote
The time and place
the recent past
but she can't seem to find
how those people spoke
or told jokes
She tries to unlock
and all that she's got
is some kind of thing
that reminds her
of a photograph
of some people she's known
Stuck with tape
to the page
and written beneath are words
In her diary
