Your face is no different from the ones that hang inside of my eyelids and in the daily air;
Yet, it is different
In a way that is visceral enough to flow recklessly in my veins:
Your face —
As the sunlight hits it just from an angle that soars my admiration,
Will remain a constant, always.
And you —
I’ll never forget
