The poem describes a woman and how she can represent many different things. In three sentences, the poem explores how she may embody beauty or beast, heaven or hell, love that lasts or love from the past. The narrator suggests they will take her laughter and tears as souvenirs and feel they must be where she goes, as she is the meaning of their life.

1. *She* *Brenda Hormaechea.* * 2007.* *7º.*

2. She may be the face I can’t forget, A trace of pleasure or regret, May be my treasure or the price I have to pay. She may be the song that summer sings , May be the chill that Autumn brings, May be a hundred different things Within the measure of a day.*

3. She may be the beauty or the beast, May be the famine or the feast, May turn each day into a heaven or a hell. She may be the mirror of my dreams, A smile reflected in a stream. She may not be what she may seem inside her shell.*

4. She who haláis seems so happy in a crowd, Whose eyes can be so private and so proud. No one’s allowed to see them when they cry. She may be the love that cannot hope to last, May come to me from shadows of the pasé That I’ll remember till the day I die.*

5. She may be the reason I survive, The why and wherefore I’m alive, The one I’ll care fox through the rough and ready years. Me, I’ll take her laughter and her tears And make them all my souvenirs For where she goes I’ve got to be. The meaning of my life is she. She, she …*

6. *The end.*
