LOVE
January 8, 1998

Once I loved a star which was unreachable;
Hopeless love.

Once I loved a flower, which dried out in time;
Colorless love.

Once I loved the mountains but I could not cross them;
Powerless love.

Once I loved a home but I had to leave it;
Useless love.

Once I loved a man who left me for my best friend;
Lost love.

Once I met a man who showed me an incredible friendship.
Blessed love.

That is why I understand that the men and the women
Who are my friends,
Are my inseparable companions,
And that it is possible 'to be' as I am , in this journey,
Where sadness and happiness
Are like the stations of the train of my life.

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
