Learning to be a woman

With bare hands, barefoot
Facing life on the field
And never from the stands
Without sparing yourself
Always moving forward no matter what
 
And nothing is ever certain
And when your past is more than the future
You know that you learned from others even the worst mistakes
For days, months, years
 
But I still get moved
For a far kiss, a memory picture
For the night that slowly becomes day
 
Every emotion goes through my breath
And I cry out of joy or for no reason
There are days when I'd want to disappear
And others when happiness is endless
 
Every emotion goes through my breath
And I laugh out of joy or for no reason
Convinced that in the end everything comes back
With the weight and the beauty of learning
To be a woman
 
And walking on the broken glasses
Of a thousand choices so wrong to burn the eyes
And despite the blows
Not caring about rights and wrongs
 
And I still get moved
Whenever I'm waiting for spring
When I meet the eyes of a true person
 
Every emotion goes through my breath
And I cry out of joy or for no reason
There are days when I'd want to disappear
And others when happiness is endless
 
Every emotion goes through my breath
And I laugh out of joy or for no reason
Convinced that in the end everything comes back
With the weight and the beauty of learning
To be a woman
 
Every emotion goes through my breath
And I laugh out of joy or for no reason
Convinced that in the end everything comes back
With the weight and the beauty of learning
To be a woman
