The Face

In another world,

on a wild day,

when the winds wreak havoc,

I see a face.

 

Much like someone I know.

 

Creases, a steely grey,

some patches of softness,

a tinge of innocence,

that believes.

 

Much like someone I know.

 

Habits that cling,

shadows that hover

behind smiles,

healing that awaits.

 

Much like someone I know.

 

The winds recede, the

dust settles: I see the face

and reach out.

A glint of faith gleams.

 

The face is mine.
