Picture of Attention

i draw your picture starting with your face,
draped in silken sheets i carefully trace,
no movement from your body as i pencil a line,
capturing the moment as this will be mine,
detailing the places i like the most of your pose,
then adding the right curves to chin and nose,
falling in love with the art i have made of you,
then looking up to see your gone from my view,
the picture was worth thousands of words but not said,
maybe i should have focused my attention on you instead.
