We see faces

We see faces

We see faces

We see people

We only see them

But they aren’t faces

They aren’t people

They are experiences

They are tears

They are joy

They are secrets

They are life.

We see eyes

We see them

Staring at us

They aren’t eyes

They aren’t staring

They are doors to light

They are our path to God.

We see children

We see them play

They aren’t children

They aren’t playing

They are elder spirits

Teaching us patience

Showing us our old world

From their new perspective

Where we no longer need to see

We will start to perceive

Once we open our heart

To a new beginning.
