The smile in her voice
to ask me if I was okay
is the nicest thing
to happen to me today
Because my face was lined with creases
and my cheeks were soaked with tears
but I will remember her and her light-brimming eyes
for a multitude of years
to ask me if I was okay
is the nicest thing
to happen to me today
Because my face was lined with creases
and my cheeks were soaked with tears
but I will remember her and her light-brimming eyes
for a multitude of years
The pure unjudged kindness of strangers is something that needs to be addressed. These people do not know my past, but they will not hesitate to improve my future ever so slightly.
