Fard ... Finale

Today's word is "fard" ... fahrd ... Archaic. to apply cosmetics to (the face). facial cosmetics. (Dictionary.com)

Finale
In the realm invisible,
   there is no way to fard
         your countenance ...
              (If you have one.)
There is only the remainder,
     the core of what you have become,
through all your wanderings,
     and decisions made.
And the only things worth remembering,
     (or saving) are those acts of love 
      performed, when you were not aware
                 that you had done anything at all.
