Walking down the street,
An old friend,
The girl of Himmel Street
Never made my acquaintance,
Until now
Breezes blow pieces,
Dandelions
Through the air like people who left her
Accordions by the river,
The woman who called her Sakurel
And the boy whose hair remained the same forever
Such a melancholy day,
looking back,
A person who helped me
Feel in existence

This has great potential to be a wonderful poem if it was just a little bit longer.  You are a good poet in my opinion just maybe make it a little longer.  Keep it up! :)
