Every pain result from a process of rupturing a hemostasis. After this fragmentation, the “I” enters a waiting process, followed, consequently, by an eminent psychic pain. The pain process differs from conventional pain because it depends of an organic pathological mechanism, generating pain that can’t be located, qualified or timed. This way, Florbela Espanca in her sonnet “I…” reveals indications that she suffers of psychic pain. We seek to analyze the descriptions about the suffering of Florbela Espanca in her sonnet "I ...", associating to the psychosocial representation of women in her work and in the Portuguese society of the twentieth century. This article followed a method of documentary analysis, using, in addition to the masterpiece of Florbela Espanca, bibliographic studies related to the theme. Moreover, we include a brief background and theoretical foundation on psychic pain and the work under analysis. We highlight as a latent difficulty the reduced number of researches in this methodological line that could contribute to the inferences about the Florbela Espanca’s literary work. The sonnet "I ..." indicates that the poet faced "pathological grief ". A process of pain occasioned by the rupture of the death. In the authors’ life, runs in many scenarios, physically, through the death of her beloved ones, and through the death of her lost loves.
