I smile.
It's been a while
since one has willingly glided across my face
but today I allow it
because I saw a set of eyes
that were not here,
viewing old art
and I know that, that means
that the set of eyes I have seen
are not just gazing upon a piece
that hasn't seen the light of day in a while
but that the gaze of the one who used to gaze upon me
is scanning anonymously
and has probably seen
my thoughts
that are built like a sculpture
that I have put so much time into.
Today, there's a good reason to smile.
Yes, today there's a reason.
