PRISONER OF TIME 1 © 2007
Life, in its splendid mystery,
Wraps me in its plots and secrets,
And, faced with such beauty and uncertainty,
Makes me a tearful face.
Each discovery, a deep emotion,
Each loss, a tear that flows away,
And as I unveil the hidden paths,
I feel the weight of what the heart cannot betray.
Life is grand in its mystery,
But it is also harsh in its truth,
And the splendour I so admire,
Brings with it the shadow of longing.
That is why my face is wet,
With the tears of one who feels too much,
For it is in encountering the mystery,
That the soul dissolves and is reborn.
