XVII
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
(pablo neruda)
/ it was not until i let myself love the fullest that i could give myself the space to heal /
(and to love again)
i wish the same finds you when you need it most. if it is this time – with all its lights and show – then i hope you are ready when it arrives
because i am sending all i can to you, too [stay warm] ❤
