She took a picture
And loved it to the moon and back
Was a little scared to post it in this sadistic world
Tried to mold it, so there’s nothing it lacked

She emended it in countless ways
Filtered, cropped, changed it’s tone
Still wasn’t sure of how enduring it was
So decided to frame it in the bubble of her sweet home

It’s not her fault
She just wanted to keep it safe
But was unaware
She was building a cage

There’s nothing else more precious than her love
As it’s the only way to get a glimpse of the heaven above

But she forgot one thing

It’s not a picture of who she wished she could be
It’s her daughter who has a world to see
