Walking in the subway
she followed some advice and listened
to the noise of people's feet
to the conversations caught in the air
to the man and his violin
He played a song so sad
it seemed to be the reason for which people scurried
across the square tiles that made the floor
they didn't want to listen
they didn't want to provoke
the tears that swam near the borders of their eyes
threatening to rush out
and soak their cheeks
if they would slow down and listen to the song
So the feet went even faster
when they heard his melody
eyes looked straight ahead
She almost wanted to stop
ask why his song played so sadly
but then her eyes blinked twice
to keep back the tears
