My Face


My face is all they see, 
They stare and wonder not much,
They see me kind...
And hopeful and everything they want to see.

Sometimes the mirror lies,
My face is a divisive tool that fools,
It has a story, not a neat one but it tells who I am,
My face is not fine yet you look and judge
And fit me in your own little image!

My face is a coincidence,
A yinyang of both good and bad,
I look at it but I fail to see me,
Like the shores of an ocean it changes and loses shape.
But it doesn't change who I am inside...
My face is false and may have no grace,
It may not even hold pride for the person I am.

Sometimes it is as sunken as the stones beneath the waters,
Sometimes it is as high as the clouds and I like it then,
Sometimes it wonders between the line of what makes me me,
Yet through all this, I know that I am who I think I am.

Always



When life bares no meaning,
I will seek for your touch and embrace its warmth,
When I am cold and my heart is without a beat, 
I will ask for yours then I will live again,
When my darkness falls,
You will be the torch to see us through life's foggy perils,
Like a glider you will steer us clear from our fears...
As we cling to the soothing feel of our emotions,
Whenever I feel lost...you will be there,
As I will for you and for us.
