And summer's lease hath all too short a date.

Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite.

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,

And nodding by the fire, take down this book,

And slowly read, and dream of the soft look

Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep.

This coyness, lady, were no crime.

We would sit down and think which way

To walk, and pass our long love's day.

And the yellow half-moon large and low;

And the startled little waves that leap

In fiery ringlets from their sleep.

My memory...

On the first page

That is the chapter when

I first met you

Appear the words...

Here begins a new life.

Our two souls therefore, which are one,

Though I must go, endure not yet

A breach, but an expansion,

Like gold to airy thinness beat.

"Love" by Pablo Neruda

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.

I love you simply, without problems or pride:

I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving

but this, in which there is no I or you,

so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,

so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.

Through windows, and through curtains, call on us?

Must to thy motions lovers' seasons run?

any experience, your eyes have their silence:

in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
