Forever, my little one.
From my most sincere love,
I long to give you the world —
my greatest privilege
is to witness your becoming
a woman like no other.
From the seeds I once gathered,
a garden of possibilities
shall bloom within you.
In a soil rich with courage,
where once there were thorns,
flowers will blossom,
bringing color to the lives
of all around you.
Along your path,
wisdom will be your guide.
You will not repeat my stumbles.
With no illusions or masks,
you will brave the snares of life,
and grow even greater.
Believe this:
greatness awaits you.
I see my reflection in your eyes:
stronger, more assured,
eternal in your humility and grace.
In your smile, I lose myself,
only to find you once again.
I will always be by your side,
to comfort you in uncertainty.
We will laugh together —
from the simplest joys
to the necessary trials,
already overcome
by the courage
of the brave one within you.
And we will celebrate
every one of your victories —
forever,
one soul, together.
