I’m getting tired and jaded. I'm retained in a castle in Tordesillas because people think I’m crazy. But I’m not crazy. I’m only in love.
I know that my husband, Felipe, died a long time ago and it hurts. I’m still in love with him. I miss him so much, because he is my life, I don’t care if he is dead. I hope I will die soon because I want to meet him again.
Here enclosed the years go by very slowly. I get bored here, I don't have nothing to do here. I've been here ten years imprisoned. Sometimes some of my children come to visit me, but that doesn't usually happen many times.
I don’t know why people think I’m mad. When Felipe was alive, I was a jealous wife, because he always lied me, but I loved him and nowadays I still loving him.
