Poem from 2001

Anonymous Smile

Sometimes I cry

For you

I never got to know

You touched my life

Through a friendly face down the block

At a time when nobody would

Through a smile

Through a peek at the baby

In my stroller

By a wave to my kids

And by imitating Donald Duck

And then on a cruel day

I saw people carry a coffin

Into your tiny appartment

You were gone

Those days when we moved away

You suffered through hell

And I never took the chance

To invite you

In my home

And in my heart


P.K.
