Future Face
My future face,
what will I look like after I've been through so many more days?
Leaves from life's tree fall and trickle to the ground.
Can never put them back where they were once found.
Now yellow and brown, although the color has changed,
the value those leaves hold is still just the same.
They are part of what makes it the tree that it is.
Reflections from our past, lessons we've lived.
An equation to fortell what has yet to come.
My future face could be anyone.
