I'm just a teddy bear
and this is my story--

I had once belonged to a beatific girl
having a heavenly smile-she was my angel
who enjoyed the pleasant lassitude
of the warm summer afternoon with me by her side
a docile little child
who never accosted anyone

But gradually she changed
into a vapid woman, obsessed by her own elegance
Deserting me one somber day on this street
-alone- at the mercy of these street tramps
