A Picture of You

Your smile was brighter than the sun
and in the old days we had so much fun

In the tough times we had each other's backs
and traded advice and life hacks

We debated fiction and facts
while you ate those pickle slices snacks

 After midnight now my depression is darker than French blue
it would help if I could laugh with you

 I worry to the break of dawn
and survive each day with a yawn

Now all I have is a picture of you
to get me through

I know life is about change
if I had the power there are things I would rearrange

Because everything just feels strange
and I miss the thoughts we would exchange

Now all I have is a picture of you
to get me through

Inspired by and dedicated to Cutie Pie. Kudos to the band Ice house and their song "Electric Blue" which played in my head while I wrote this.
