I've had just enough time to... try to feel what it is like to be someone I'm not
Taken while strolling through the street of Munich
I stood
apart from the crowd
You won’t
understand the feelings
You have not been there
But you
thought you did
I took
those well meaning sympathies
For what
they are – well meaning
But don’t
try to tell me you understand
It only
pained me though I smiled
If you
are three feet tall
Have a
white face, pointed nose
And wear
a tall red cap
Then
tell me –
You know
what it is like to be me

I was strolling through the street of Munich when I came across this man standing rock still with a sad expression frozen on his face. He is an interesting subject so I shot him. People passing him by or stopped to take a shot. But all the time, he just stood there immobile until...
....dropped a coin into his pail. Then, his faced lighted up into a big smile as if by doing so you have broken a spell. He then came to life and shake your hand, waved at you or take a photo with you before he returned to his frozen state until the next coin dropped..

This is wonderfully poignant.
Love the sad expression perfectly captured.
And the thoughtful words so well stating the feelings of an outsider.

You Will Never Know What It Is Like To Be Me
I like your title ...
street artists may look sad or happy...
Just like in our heart, no one knows.
