The face first seems kind
Brown eyes care free, soft and content. A closer inspection reveals the falsity of this A slouch and seemingly heavy brow The weight of the world rests on his shoulders A haunted look appears in his eyes Haunted by the love that could not be his That hovers ghostly behind his shoulder Confess, this world of ideas This world of restrictions is a heavy weight to carry Alone I wrote this poem for school while at the National Art Gallery of Canada in Ottawa. I'm trying to find the name of the painting I based it on so I can post it here. Thanks for reading!
