with the green sea behind you

it's an old
photo.
one where you look happy,
though
i know you weren't.
the green sea
is behind you.
there's a gull in the sky.
you shade
your eyes with your
long arm.
you'd rather be anywhere
else then here.
i sense that 
as i snap the picture,
you're miserable,
but you smile in spite of it,
you don't let on.
