Your Smile Your Smile I look at him in the mirror, and wonder, if I could really like people. Eric Zhang • September 13, 2023 will I ever be able to smile at someone, the way your eyes smiled at me? I like you , I say to myself, yearning. [a word collage] Today I tried to take a picture of me. I wanted to see something beautiful I could appreciate and understand. A person. It’s hard to take pictures of people you don’t know. Perhaps if I knew myself, I could see something when I take a picture of myself, like I do when I look at others. It turns out that I don’t know myself.
