“O sol brilhava imponente acima da sua cabeça e parecia mais uma afronta à tempestade que fizera na noite anterior, atrasando em um dia a sua chegada àquele lugar. Sentia o pouco de pele exposta queimando com os raios que a atingiam, e a sua boca ansiava por água à medida que o suor escorria por debaixo da sua blusa, fazendo-a grudar em suas costas. Talvez o inferno estivesse mais fresco do que aquele buraco.”

“I Will Always Love You Lovely words from a loving Mother When the sun does not shine And the noon becomes dull When the moon goes too soon And daylight fades on the horizon Be rest assured, I will always love you When you see my flaws Or feel like not loving me anymore When you begin to wonder If I am the Mother you expected me to be You must know that I will always love you When I cannot sing you a song In case you hear the cracks in my voice When the journey seems long Perhaps I am no more and you feel all alone Remember that I will always love you You are a star that makes my night so bright The one who lifts me high A great blessing in my life I am very proud to call you my child That is why I will always love you With the whole of my being And all that is within From the hair on my head To the heels of my feet I will always love you”
