I Had A Face

Word of The Day Challenge: Relationship

René Magritte (1928) The Lovers #1

Does it matter what  look like when I smile, when I laugh, when I cry?

Does it matter what I smell like when I’m angry, what I feel like when I’m angry? What I sound  like when I yell out in pain?

Does it matter that I never wore the right dresses? Sniffed my wine before I sipped it? Never read the right books? Kissed the right way?

It never mattered

to you because

I never had a face

you couldn’t describe it

because when you looked at it,  your eyes were always closed

 

René Magritte “The Lovers II,”
