Por mi Madre

Ari Ruvalcaba

Free verse
Descansa, por tus manos ya casi se derritan
Remoja tus dedos en aguas tranquilas

Permítalos revivir en las torres de dios

Déjame las culpas, de tus pecados inocentes
Por las faltas de tu pasado
Y tu sacrificio por la mejor vida

Por ti madre trabajo incansablemente
Matando cada nervio de mi alma

Entrego todo mis pensamientos impuros
Para su lugar en la euforia

About this poem
