This poem’s narrative revolves around a heartfelt letter written by someone who loves another person struggling with unresolved trauma from past relationships. Acknowledging the deep emotional turmoil and the necessity for healing, the writer expresses compassion and a painful decision to part ways, encapsulated in the phrase “Aún te amo pero tengo que dejarte ir” (translation: I still love you but I have to let you go).
