no face
I looked into the crowd
For the familiar lines
Along your jaw, your cheeks
And eyes,
Your face within the mass
But I have found
In a desolate second of conclusion
Its the absence of which
I truly cannot face.
I am
To say the least
heartbroken and abashed.
The faceless is indeed
The hardest to look at straight.

"The faceless is indeed

Favorite part.
When reading this, I think of those times when you look at someone, but their thoughts seem to be occupied elsewhere, so they give you that blank, unrecognizable, sort of look that is either caused by distraction, mind-wandering, or intense emotional feeling that requires you to alter your perspective.
very relate-able.
