Then Scale by scale, We strip off The delicacy And eat The peaceful mush Of its green heart.

Image
Once more I am the silent one who came out of the distance wrapped in cold rain and bells: I owe to earth's pure death the will to sprout.
Pablo Neruda
Image
Like a jar you housed the infinite tenderness, and the infinite oblivion shattered you like a jar.
Pablo Neruda
Image
The road made wet by the water of August shines like it was cut in full moonlight
Pablo Neruda
Image
Love is the mystery of water and a star.
Pablo Neruda
Image
You can crush the flowers, but you can't stop the spring.
Pablo Neruda
Image
Every day you play with the light of the universe.
Pablo Neruda
Image
You & I, Love, together we ratify the silence, while the sea destroys its perpetual statues, collapses its towers of wild speed and whiteness: because in the weavings of those invisible fabrics, galloping water, incessant sand, we make the only permanent tenderness.
Pablo Neruda
Image
Love, how many roads to obtain a kiss.
Pablo Neruda
Image
Perhaps this war will pass like the others which divided us leaving us dead, killing us along with the killers but the shame of this time puts its burning fingers to our faces. Who will erase the ruthlessness hidden in innocent blood?
Pablo Neruda
Image
I'm not me but living matter fermenting and forming its own shapes in the fruitfulness of every day.
Pablo Neruda
Image
In you is the illusion of each day. You arrive like the dew to the cupped flowers. You undermine the horizon with your absence. Eternally in flight like the wave.
Pablo Neruda
Image
I am everybody and every time, I always call myself by your name.
Pablo Neruda
Image
As slippery as smooth grapes, words exploding in the light like dormant seeds waiting in the vaults of vocabulary, alive again, and giving life: once again the heart distills them.
Pablo Neruda
Image
We the mortals touch the metals, the wind, the ocean shores, the stones, knowing they will go on, inert or burning, and I was discovering, naming all the these things: it was my destiny to love and say goodbye.
Pablo Neruda
Image
Where were you then? Who else was there? Saying what? Why will the whole of love come on me suddenly when I am sad and feel you are far away?
Pablo Neruda
Image
Love, what a long way, to arrive at a kiss.
Pablo Neruda
Image
For now I ask no more Than the justice of eating.
Pablo Neruda
Image
And our problems will crumble apart, the soul / blow through like a wind, and here where we live will all be clean again, with fresh bread on the table.
Pablo Neruda
Image
Under your skin the moon is alive.
Pablo Neruda
Image
If suddenly you do not exist, If suddenly you are not living, I shall go on living. I do not dare, I do not dare to write it, if you die. I shall go on living.
Pablo Neruda
