Pictures

*Click* 
says the camera as the mom pushes down the button, she lowers the camera and smiles at her beautiful daughter on her prom night.
*Click*
says many cameras as the band climbs on stage to start their number one song.

says the camera as the father pushes the button, he lowers the camera and waves by to his little girl as she steps on the school bus on her very first day of 1st grade.
*Click*
says the camera as the teenage girls run screaming, one's hold the camera that captured the hot new guy with out a shirt.
*Click*
says the camera as the police officer takes pictures of the body.

Not all pictures are happy or exciting. But sometimes one picture can say a thousand words. 

When that girl went to prom her date made out with another in the janitors closet, but you'd never know.

When that band climbed on stage and started to play the crowd booed, it was awful, but you'd never know it.

When that little girl climbed off the bus in front of her new school and fell on her face after some kid tripped her, you'd never know.

When that teenage girl walked though her front door and spotted the new kid sitting with her parents talking about that afternoon, you'd never know.

When that police man was taking the pictures some where in town a mother was worried sick about when her son would return home.

In just one or more seconds that entire picture could have changed. All those happy smiley kids could be sad and crying, those beautiful prom girls could've been wonderful to see and are now nothing but a girl with out a date, only guess what?
You'd never know it.
