Warming His Face Girl On The Bench One
896 words
He stands against the pillar, his eyes closed, and
breathes in the cold air. The sun is steadily
rising, its rays warming his face, taking the
chill out of the January morning. He turns even
more towards the sun, basking in its warmth. At

world. He is oblivious to the world, oblivious to
the girl on the bench steadily watching him.

Fifty Years Ago Concentration Camp

humanity couldnt be forgotten by me. The
