deepen into curves

I've written about lines before, the ones that we ignore.

But there are some lines that cannot be ignored. The lines of age, and life, and time. The lines that tell you this man has worried more in his life than any one person should have to. The lines that show you how weary he is, the lines that are no longer straight, but curve down a back that doesn't have the strength to hold itself up anymore.

These are the lines, that over time, deepen

into curves.
