I have been very busy lately, both with various projects and with memories, which is why there haven't been any blog-posts recently. I am planning to do something scarfish/scarvish? for the 4th of July and 14th of July, though!
A long time ago I had a dear friend, Malena. Today I went through some old papers, and realised it is the anniversary of her death ....
Malena, my friend
they have forgotten you.
Your patience and your love
your never ceasing care -
they have forgotten you.
The laughter of your youth
that died so very soon
your short life
filled with work -
they have forgotten you.
However hard you tried
they never loved you well.
You were not good enough
they often humbled you.
As if you'd been a dream
you faded from their minds.
Malena, so lovely
your smile was long ago.
Life was not fair to you
How could they treat you so?
Malena my friend
they have forgotten you.
