FOR YOU, QUEEN
For you, queen, whose heart loves selflessly,
despite immense pain,
despite all the blows of life,
you are proof that true beauty exists.
I write these verses for you,
to fight and breathe with you,
when everyone leaves you in life,
so that you know that you have someone to count on.
At any time, day, night,
I am ready to lend you a hand and help,
not with words alone, as many say,
and when it gets thick, you can see that they are lying.
I am ready to let you know with my actions,
that no matter what you are going through, you have no reason to feel ashamed,
I am not here to judge you,
but to awaken the life in you.
You are a queen, a mother and a lady,
the one who breaks your heart,
who humiliates and insults you in life,
who cruelly turns his back on you,
You deserve happiness and peace after all,
I want to see the glow of your gaze,
You were not born to suffer,
nor to pay dearly for your kindness.
Be aware of your value,
because they live in you, they exist in you,
there are truly few like you,
and therefore let yourself be cared for.
Whenever you wish, contact me, queen,
so that I may brighten your face at least for a moment,
so that you may understand that you exist in this world for a reason,
so that you may be loved and that you may love.
