Summary

This quote illustrates the temporal perspective of the speaker. It suggests that the future, symbolized by "to-morrow," appears more substantial and palpable than the present moment. The phrase "looked in my face" implies a profound introspection or confrontation with the passing of time. The speaker's inability to gaze as steadily at tomorrow as it does at them implies a sense of uncertainty or unease about the future. It encapsulates the profound impact and influence that the concept of tomorrow can have on human perception and consciousness.
