Hay prisiones peores,
Que las de piedra y cemento,
Pues encierran fuerzas adentro,
Que deben fluir en libertad.
Una prisión de sentimientos,
Siempre fallará en su función,
Pues en algún inevitable momento,
Sus custodios escaparán.
Y cuando eso vaya a pasar,
Habrán solo dos alternativas:
Los sentimientos, sigilosos, escaparán
Liberando poco a poco la presión,
O se desatará una explosión,
Que destruirá todo a su paso,
Sin mesura o compasión.

Locked feelings
There are prisons worse,
Than brick and mortar ones,
Because they are invisible,
To most eyes.
They lock in raw power,
That should be flowing free,
Thereby compressing forces,
That continue to build and build.
A prison for feelings,
Will fail at its duty every time,
Since at some moment in time,
All feelings will break free.
And when they do, there are but two,
Likely outcomes to be had,
Either feelings sneaked out with relief,
Or exploded, burning everyone in their path.

Nuevos comienzos
¿Te atreves a comenzar otra vez?
¿Aunque hacerlo ponga en riesgo,
Todo lo que has creado aquí,
Y que puedes destruir?
No será como la primera vez,
De eso puedes estar segura,
Sabia te ha hecho tu experiencia,
Pero tus tropiezos en esta vuelta,
Serán igual de imprevistos,
Y te tomarán, igual, por sorpresa.
Sin embargo, tienes que recomenzar,
No hay otro camino,
Ese es nuestro destino,
Y el ciclo de esta vida,
Que todo proyecto termina,
Para ver otro llegar.

New beginnings
Can you dare to start again?
To brave the strain and work,
And build upon what you'd done,
Even when you could crumble it all?
It will not be the same,
Rest assure of it,
You've grown wise,
From your first time,
Your new mistakes,
Will be again,
As unforseable,
As on that first try.
Yet, you must start again,
There is no other path,
You must move on,
And push along,
And do what must be done.
For there is no rest in life,
When something's done,
Something else comes up,
That needs you to restart.
