Life's Sessions

I first noticed your face when I was a small child

I didn’t pay much attention back then

 

Later of course I would see it constantly

All through school –

 

And during my working years

(especially during my working years)

 

No matter what was happening to me

Your face never changed expressions –

 

I couldn’t tell what you were thinking

 

Then, once I had become old

When I couldn’t even hear you anymore

I’d look up at you and I’d see it

 

and I knew

 

And of course you knew all along
