Once I wanted to reach the bottom and find
ecstasy,
I intended a tour through the dawns,
to tear the silence of my provocative sleep.
I wanted to enjoy an imported wine
and stroll around the square with someone,
I wished for the metamorphosis that never happened.
Today the hurtful words come to the mirror,
the false pronouncements of a hypocritical love,
on my back, I feel a little girl who cries
for the humiliations of her brothers
and gestures of a father who prefers them.
That is not my case. What we do share is sadness,
the hours of loneliness.
Maybe my father is guilty of not preferring
any
of his children. For humiliating me so many times,
for not being interested in my undeveloped wings
about to face a flight.
