pose

I saw the portrait in the form of
A frozen statue and felt a sense of kinship
A pose of a moment to haunt a lifetime
Never to be able to release
So they gazed at me with a human kind of eye
Not knowing why they sighed
Or gazed and uttered an “ah” in a special kind of haze
Not realizing a passion was in a form
Not prudent to say
So the shape unveiled portrayed a
Scene we never were allowed to play
Yet they stood and yearned to be a
Private pose of me
