My Photo

As smooth as skin
thin like paper.
The camera takes a
picture of Matilda and I
while we sit on the comfortable couch.
Feeling sad though
as distance separates us
Sometimes I feel like
she is right next to me
and I look at it every night
because I can’t see her
whenever we want
to play
because she lives in England
the other side of the world
I just miss her
When I am older she might meet me
or I’ll go see her in England and Skype her
on my laptop, iPad or phone.
This morning she sent me a photo of her
with glasses and a picture of her.
