THIS FACE HAS SEEN IT ALL

This face has seen it all,
The good times and the bad.
I've laughed with my brothers,
Together we've been sad.

At that coal face we've been,
Just a lamp upon a head.
We've seen carnage and pain,
We've seen friends laying dead.

And these lines that you see,
Etched upon my face.
They are the lines of a story,
Of that deep vein that we chase.
