Snapshot
Written for https://reinventionsreena.wordpress.com/2024/07/11/reenas-xploration-challenge338/ I took the picture, and you were wearing a slanted smile. The light behind your eyes, fell into a shallow shadow, seeming to say, this moment in time isn’t real. I lowered my camera and enveloped your trembling hands.
