Faces in a Crowd

Do you look at the faces

In a crowd?

Do you look into their eyes

And read their stories?

Do you notice their

Bodily imperfections?

Do you see how beautiful

They all are?

Do you see their lives as they

Walk by?

Do you smile to tell them you

Know their secrets?

Or are you too busy

To notice the faces?

Do you not look up at the

Ambulance roaring past you?

Do you realize that soon enough

You'll be in one?

Do you just let life go on

Without ever living?
