My Mother's Eyes

I pay more attention to my eyes than maybe is normal, due to the necessity to put drops in them twice a day, to control glaucoma. And every once in a while I see in my eyes my mother looking at me.

Maybe my father is looking at me, too, but I wouldn't know, because he left this life when I was six. I had no chance to become so well acquainted with all the subtleties of his face and his personality.
