Worse than denial is oblivion;
more cruel indifference than death;
free my heart from a half-loving you,
which is consenting to a slumbering heart.
Do not let my love, wilted,
forget to thank you for your love:
I need You, for from my death
only saves me who has redeemed me.
And That is You, my Mother and Companion,
and my Queen, and my Lady, and my Mistress,
my evening and morning Star!
Remember that hour of Calvary
when Jesus made you my Mediatrix,
and of His Redemption… Co-Redemptrix!
Mons. Alberto José González Chaves
