Who Is This Now

Who is this now 
this old face I see
this one whose reflection 
looks back at me
From a place long ago
from that "remember when"
it seems that I knew him
even back then
From back when my world 
was simple and sweet
when life was so full
and seemed so complete
That world where the sun seemed 
always to shine
and love seemed to last
till the end of time
And now this old face
with eyes that still shine
looks back at me 
as if it were mine
