My face
Every day, in every way.
I smile in pain, drained in rain.
You dine in fame, I stare in vain.

Every week, in every wake.
I die again, gaining no grain.
You walk in grace, I look amazed.

Every month, in every ounce.
I loose the game, to know your name.
You laugh away, I see the play.

You are not my friend, you are not my foe.
You are just the love, I hate to loose.
I walk in the shadow, I flee at your light.
I stay in your dreams long after you wake,
Hoping that someday, you might see my face.
