I Have No Face

I have no face to claim My face as a child Lost it in my teenage As the beach is lost to the sea My teenage face Lost it in my adulthood As the dunes in a wind My adult face Lost to the old age Burned off like a candle And my old age face Will be lost to the dust. Melting down to the ocean of void A faceless me Where do I live With that permanent sign A faceless me.
