Since You've Been Gone

i'm looking at myself
in the mirror
and i really don't
like what i see
if i hadn't grown a beard
30 years ago
i'd have way to much face to wash
because my hairs receded
to the rear
I see lines on my forehead
from worries and troubles
i see someone in good shape
but you can't see the aches
and the pains that accumulate
from my chosen profession
but most of all
its hard to look into the eyes
staring back at me
to see the hurt
the heartache
the loneliness
since you've been gone
