face frozen by film,
captured in a complicated,
expression, something
of disappointment, trouble
and weariness in it.
the defeated wistfulness
of someone mourning a dream
they no longer dare hope
to ever achieve.
painfully vulnerable,
the exposed pale collarbone,
the intermittent freckles.
eyes of indeterminate hue,
a mix of grey, green, hazel, blue
vouchsafe the distance
a heartbroken sad gaze,
surrounded but still somehow
the definition of alone.
