Visitor

It's so strange
that I'm just passing through
but everyone here
has made memories.

I see through the eyes
of a little girl,
who went to her friend's house.
They were sisters.

I see through the eyes
of an old woman.
Generations after her,
a child and her child.

They were sisters,
but then one left.
"Daughter, I'm sorry.
We're leaving.
Your sister is leaving too."
Her tears could have
filled a bucket.

But I'm just passing through.
My memories are elsewhere
in my head.
Maybe I'll just settle here.
