I Am Not Alone

By Nelcy Alfaro

The night is helplessness 
from the mountains to the sea. 
But I, the one who rocks you, 
I am not alone!

The sky is helplessness 
if the moon falls to the sea.
But I, the one who hugs you, 
I am not alone!

The world is helplessness 
and the flesh, in sadness, carries on. 
But I, the one who cuddles you,
I am not alone!
