She Poem by Ma Eugenia Carrasco

She is the most important thing in my life,
For her I live, because of her am I.
Without her, my life would be nothing and I’d be alone in the infinite.
For her I must keep going and not die trying.

She’s the one who drives me, gives me strength and energy to keep going.
I don’t want to disappoint her; I love her and want to keep her always by my side.
I’d like to give her my youth, my time and
All the necessary to make her stop suffer.
Today, I must think about her and not about me.

Oh Lord, don’t let me finish alone; I should die if I do not have her.
Oh Lord, I am nothing without her tenderness, her look and sweetness.
She’s the old tree under which shadow I can rest,
Without feeling alone.
