Your Face
Looking into your face I see the one I love looking back at me
The eyes that smile are the eyes I saw in the one you used to be
The face may have changed with wrinkles with its creases
Yet the loving expression I see in you still never ceases
The hair on your head may be gray or even mostly gone
Still I see the dear one which to me it's still on
The voice still bears the tones I remember from the years gone by
The ears of a linguist will hear it with a tearfully laden sigh
I see your face which is you yet is only one small part
The face of a friend seen with loving vision of the heart
