Επιμέλεια: Εύα Πετροπούλου Λιανού
Where has the shine disappeared
In your sad eyes
I feel, longing destroys your
Despite the years, beautiful face
Can you free yourself,
Forgive those who
Didn’t know how to love you
As you deserve
Do you have the strength to let go
The devastating pain in your chest?
Who are you unconsciously punishing
Despite the love they offer you
Can you love again
Release the weight, take off the shackles,
Free your soul, let the light in
Into life, without fear of rejection,
Consciously accept a dormant desire
Are you able to try to change yourself?
