Someone Whose Story I Wish I Knew

She came into the road, moving past cars as though she couldn't see them, wailing like a baby. She had matted fair curls - she looked like a figure from a poem by Keats. My mother wondered if she should help her but moved to lock the doors as she brushed past her car.

We didn't say anything for a while.

'I feel as though I've been touched by some angel of death', she said.

I don’t know if you want any feedback for this but just in case, … and with the best of intentions:

First, a couple of typos. I think you probably mean ‘Whose Story’ and ‘angel of death’. (Don’t worry too much about typos; when you find a publisher for your work, there will be an editor to mess about with your script and they will sort things out. Spelling isn’t my strong point either.)
