I’m not exactly sure how to explain it

The feeling of sorrow and regret

When I try to swallow reality I can’t forget

I’m embedded by the love and selfishness I still can’t explain

Traveling through a mind buried in a suicide forest

Marked by words who will soon meet their end

And it’s too damn bad we all must meet our fate.

Another wonderful photograph of a Ghost mum. And for those who missed the first explanation: In the fledgling days of photography, one had to remain completely still for a length of time for a proper portrait to be taken. With a child’s predilection for doing anything but standing still, their mothers would have to be in the photography to keep them still. For reasons I’m not sure of, the bright idea was to cover the matrons with fabric, thus creating the ghost mother.
