"Your Face" by Casey June Wolf (Poem)

 


Your Face

How our faces have changed, old friend

Without the intervening years 
witnessing transformations
I would walk right past you on the street

Your plump cheeks 
lost
emptied out
folds of soft, stubbled skin remain

Those dark eyes
now pale
their look has softened

We have lost our elasticity
and so, our tautness
We have gentled into age
and I prefer us now
