On the Wall

Tell me what you see?  
A missed placed piece of hair  
Smudged lipstick upon the teeth  
Wrinkles that grew from many smiles  
Or tearful eyes from a jilted heart  
 
A young girl with pigtails that her  
grandmother just put in  
A scampering boy with dirt on his face who just caught ten frogs  
Or grandpa wiping oil off his face from fixing the car
 
Mother primping herself before father arrives home from work  
Father wiping the stain of the forbidden kiss from his neck
Mother covering the evidence from the fight the night before  
 
Prom, the dawning of the corsage  
Countless times of perfecting the look
Maybe even the first kiss between two young
Lovers  
 
Someone who can’t look at themselves without shedding a tear  
Others just can’t stop looking at themselves  
Humility, egocentric, resentment, boastful
 
What secrets do you hold?
