oct 5 - tonite [2003-10-05 @ 9:10 p.m.] there is this poem/sonnet by the chilean writer pablo neruda that i simply love..actually, there are 2 by him that are in my top 10 list of best ever works...but the one that's striking me the most at the moment is this one...i never really used to like it, but over the last month it's grown on me (yes, i read these words a lot lately..).. I want you to know one thing. You know how this is: if I look at the crystal moon, at the red branch of the slow autumn at my window if I touch near the fire the impalpable ash or the wrinkled body of the log, everything carries me to you, as if everything that exists, aromas, light, metals, were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that wait for me. Well, now, if little by little you stop loving me If suddenly you forget me do not look for me, for I shall already have forgotten you. If you think it long and mad, the wind of banners that passes through my life, and you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots, remember that on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms and my roots will set off to seek another land. But if each day, each hour, you feel that you are destined for me with implacable sweetness, if each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me, ah my love, ah my own, in me all that fire is repeated, in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten, my love feeds on your love, and as long as you live it will be in your arms without leaving mine. ..beautiful, isn't it?? i dont know why i thought she would have shown up here tonite (especially after being told repeatedly that she "physically cant"..but i dunno...i just had this feeling...i guess i was wrong...again... jul 2 - fuckers jun 13 - bored may 11 - GAMSAT april 20 - adios apr 13 - babble |
