luparctos:
The universe was so impressed by its own creation that it split from unity into duality, just so it could share the awe with someone else.

Absence
My love,
We have found each other
Thirsty and we have
Drunk up all the water and the
Blood,
We found each other
Hungry
And we bit each other
As fire bites,
Leaving wounds in us.

Keep for me your sweetness.
I will give you too
A rose. Pablo Neruda

Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel.

I have heard songs from the stone,
And melodies from plants.
I myself have heard a song from the wind and the leave.
Man only

It is not man only who loves:
The sea and rain,
The sun and...

I Ask the Impossible
I ask the impossible: love me forever.
Love me when all desire is gone.
Love me with the single mindedness of a monk.
When the world in its entirety,
and all that you hold sacred advise you
against it: love me still more.
When rage fills you and has no name: love me.
When each step from your door to our job tires you–
love me; and from job to home again, love me,...
