She went through the old photographs.
Swiping though most. Pausing at some.
Moments of joy; captured, frozen for Eternity-
Chucking her graduating cap into the air
Striking a seductive pose at her cousin’s wedding
Running on the beach, racing a dog
Making the okay sign on her scuba dive
Grinning from behind the masquerade mask
Rejoicing after climbing the walls of a fort
She. The girl with the gorgeous smile.
The girl who hung herself one night.
No photographs were taken at her funeral
Had they been, might she have smiled there too?
That smile. The biggest mask she wore.
