The Conversation
Location
I’m talking to you,
And I see the weight fall off your shoulders and onto your face
And I see your eyes light up in fear of falling off the edge of the earth
And I smile, wondering how it looks to you
Am I wearing my mask well?
And I see your tongue run across your lips at hard syllables
And I see all your teeth because your smile means that you're wearing your mask well
Or maybe you really are happy.
