PREMIS SANT JORDI 2021 – LLENGUA ANGLESA – POESIA

Maria de Manuel – My own way

Where’s my self love?

Where’s my own respect?

I’m looking for it, but I can’t find it anywhere.

Where’s my self care?

Where’s my hidden smile?

I’m working on it, but I’m not there yet.

I’m in a tunnel without final,

without hope,

without happiness.

Then, I remember something:

I remember I’m not alone,

and I miss my previous life.

I remember there’s much more than this dark reality, 

I remember that I don’t deserve this,

and I push myself towards this difficult path.

Now, I love myself,

I’m learning to accept the way I am.

And finally, I can see a light at the end of the tunnel.
