That girl

I would see her from time to time.
I would sit where I used to sit,
By the tracks
Smoking cigarettes
down
to the filter
And she would stand there
A few feet away
Watching the trains go by
Or the sunset without me.
Once,
I'm sure
She smiled at me.

I wonder if that girl will ever come back again.
I wonder if that girl is still dancing
backwards down the green hill
Onto street.
I wonder if that girl was strong enough
To take the step
Forward.
