To Remember Nonna, Gabit and Raya

Trying to sum up
the essence of this people
Overwhelms me

Proud people
expecting much from themselves
taking care of own integrity
too much pressure a little misguided

Emotional people
much stronger than they think
not sure they're allowed to feel
like they do

A strong sense of community
An instant bond
over language and memories
true brothers and sisters
ask for anything

They go straight to the core
and the moment is alive
in the best way
that humanity can do it.

They walk away holding hands
this Mother and her Son
and I cry
loving those Eastern Europeans.
