Your man
I’m known as man of million faces
It’s true, I’ve lived a million lives
And heard a million iterations
Of the same couple of lines.
And every life I live, I think you truly mean it
Because you do make sure they are delivered
With that smile you have that’s like a portrait sliced in half
That makes it feel as though you are a Keaton
And I just somehow made you laugh.
Yes, I have had so many faces,
And maybe way before you came around
They did belong to different people, been to different places,
They may have left so many footsteps, but you have smoothened it all out,
Not anymore are we a Joe, or Matthew,
We are a faceless memory of being called the one.
And our biography is no freestanding sentence,
Us is I, and I’m the answer
To what it’s like to hold you tight.
We’re an extension of your loving presence,
We are a time disfiguration,
I am one humble loop of your eternal 12:01.
You are the heat, we are the effervescence,
Before we were a ghost you walk through, we bumped into you in a crowd,
Ignoring you is much like dodging rain
You soak right through our clothes, our skin and then dissolve the mind,
And mush us all into the same.
You are the fire, we are the blur above the flame.
We are together known as man of million faces,
Or, in other words, your man.
