I should have understood from the sound of your voice
I should have sensed what is not being said
I should have understood at least this time
I should have know what was wrong
But all these things that men don't know
These simple gestures that we don't do
That we forget every time
These silences so strong
But we don't hear
But why don't mothers tell
The secrets of women, their doubts and their joys
Yet they suffered at least once
In the arms of a man deaf to their voices
There are so many things that men do not know
These simple gestures but which they do not
That they forget each time
These silences so strong
But that they do not hear.
