The Photo

I talk to a photo I recently met,
pondering things I can't forget. 
His eyes look back, frank and aware,
and I so much wish he were really there. 
What would he say?  I have no idea --
but with a face such as that,
I would have no fear. 
Rest in peace, dear soul
whom I never knew --
could you pray for me (?)
and I'll pray for you.
