Linda Weller

Every dark road traveled, every pain and loss suffered, etched deep in the face. All the hardships endured bruising the eyes, the grief and heartache down turning the mouth. Giving up on caring in the wayward hair, the roughness of life in the rasp in the voice. Bad choices made spotting the skin. All the worries creasing the brow The anguish of losses, all the worries of a life wasted etching the lips. The faded eyes, drooping eyelids hiding sorrow deep within. The trembling hands grasping for lost opportunities, failed ambitions and ending of dreams. Or maybe it is all only the ravages of lost time? Photo of Lisa Emery as Linda Weller in Blindspot. Seeing the sequence where Kurt meets his mother brought these words to mind.
