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

SOMEDAY

"Someday"...she softly whispered,
Then tucked away her dreams;
Leaving them under her pillow,
Like fragile lacy things.

Left to rest there for the day,
While she goes to face the world;
Nestled sweetly in her bed,
Like angel wings unfurled.

"Someday when the time is right"...
She whispers with a smile;
"I'll unwrap all my pretty dreams,
But not yet for a while."

"I'll leave them wrapped in ribbon,
Pale pink roses --- bits of lace;
I'll keep them where no one can see,
His handsome, smiling face."

"Someday"...she whispers in the night
"I'll unwrap those dreams so dear;
For now I'll keep them in my heart,
'Til I can hold him near."

 

[Soron]

Happy Valentine's Day, Arden

when i was led to you
i knew you were the one for me
i swear the whole world could feel my heartbeat
when i lay eyes on you
ay ay ay
you wrapped me up in
the colour of love

Already, you are mine. Rest with your dream inside my dream.
Love, grief, labour, must sleep now.
Night revolves on invisible wheels
and joined to me you are pure as sleeping amber.

No one else will sleep with my dream, love.
You will go we will go joined by the waters of time.
No other one will travel the shadows with me,
only you, eternal nature, eternal sun, eternal moon.

Already your hands have opened their delicate fists
and let fall, without direction, their gentle signs,
you eyes enclosing themselves like two grey wings,

while I follow the waters you bring that take me onwards:
night, Earth, winds weave their fate, and already,
not only am I not without you, I alone am your dream.

Pablo Neruda

AND I LOVE HER
(John Lennon-Paul McCartney)

I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her

She gives me ev'rything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her

A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

BABY YOU BELONG TO ME
(Faith Hill)

There's a reason why
you can look up every night
and every star in heaven's in it's place
There's a reason why
the full moon pulls the tide
and the waves roll into a shore that always waits

And just like them
baby you belong
baby you belong
Nothin's ever been so meant to be
or ever felt so right to me
Every single part of me believes
baby you belong
oh baby you belong
There really is no mystery
I think anyone can see
That baby you belong
with me

There's a voice inside
and I heard it promise me
When you came along
Id know you by heart
like a familiar song
Every word is telling me
that the time has finally come
Now here you are

And I know for sure
oh, baby you belong
baby you belong
Nothin's ever been so meant to be
or ever felt so right to me
Every single part of me believes
baby you belong
oh, baby you belong
There really is no mystery
I think anyone can see
that baby you belong

Like the sun belongs up in the morning sky
and for at least another million reasons why

Baby you belong
oh, baby you belong
Nothin's ever been so meant to be
or ever felt so right to me

Baby you belong
oh, baby you belong
Nothin's ever been so meant to be
or ever felt so right to me
Every single part of me believes that
baby you belong
oh baby, baby, baby you belong
There really is no mystery
I think anyone can see
That baby you belong
with me

Baby you belong with me

[color=royal-blue]DANCE AMONG THE STARS

Come my love and dance with me,
Your body next to mine;
Swaying there among the stars,
In a dance to last all time.

Take my hand and pull me close,
Whisper softly in my ear;
Secrets from a lover's heart,
Words only I can hear.

Dance with me across the sky,
'Neath the twinkling stars;
Let time stand still, let all sound cease,
But the music, which is ours.

Come my love and dance with me,
Your body next to mine;
We will dance among the stars,
In a dance to last for all time.

If passion were a flame of fire,
That burned into my soul;
I'd be consumed by this inferno,
By you who makes me whole.

Just like the moth who can't resist,
Who's drawn into the fire;
I dance around the flickering light,
Of passion and desire.

I look so deeply in your eyes,
At the hair I long to touch;
I hear my name come whispering,
'Cross lips I need so much.

My heart is filled with longing,
I stand too near the fire.
Again I'm drawn by the music,
Of passion and desire.

My hands reach out to touch you,
I live for one look from your eyes;
I whisper your name in the quiet times,
My love too strong to deny.

I dance to the tune of your music,
I sway in the glow of your fire.
Ever drawn into this inferno,
Of passion and desire.

Tie your heart at night to mine, love,
and both will defeat the darkness
like twin drums beating in the forest
against the heavy wall of wet leaves.

Night crossing: black coal of dream
that cuts the thread of earthly orbs
with the punctuality of a headlong train
that pulls cold stone and shadow endlessly.

Love, because of it, tie me to a purer movement,
to the grip on life that beats in your breast,
with the wings of a submerged swan,

So that our dream might reply
to the sky’s questioning stars
with one key, one door closed to shadow.

~ Neruda

‘Who ever desired each other as we do?’


Who ever desired each other as we do? Let us look

for the ancient ashes of hearts that burned,

and let our kisses touch there, one by one,

till the flower, disembodied, rises again.



Let us love that Desire that consumed its own fruit

and went down, aspect and power, into the earth:

We are its continuing light,

its indestructible, fragile seed.



That Desire, interred in time’s deep winter,

by snows and spring-times, absence and autumns,

bring to it the apple’s new light,



that freshness disclosed by a strange wound,

like that ancient Desire that journeys in silence

through submerged mouths’ eternities.

XVIII

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

~ William Shakespeare

 

[Soron]

I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us -- don't tell!
They'd advertise -- you know!
How dreary to be somebody!
How public like a frog
To tell one's name the live long day
To an admiring bog!

Emily Dickinson

LET'S BE FRIENDS (Skin to skin)
(Bruce Springsteen)

I been watchin' you a long time
Trying to figure out where and when
We been moving down that same line
The time is now maybe we could get skin to skin

Don't know when this chance might come again
Good times got a way of comin' to an end
Don't know when this chance might come again
Good times got a way of slippin' a-way
Let's be friends, baby let's be friends

I know we're different you and me
Get a diffente way of walkin'
The time has come te let the past be history
Yeah, if we could just start talkin'
Don't know when this chance might come again
Good times got a way of comin' to an end
Don't know when this chance might come again
Good times got a way of slippin' a-way
Let's be friends, baby let's be friends

Do, do do doo do do do doo...

There's a lot of talk going `round now
Let'em talk you know you're the only one
There's a lot of walls need tearing down
Together we could take them down one by one


I love you

Dreams are
Journeys that take
One far from
Familiar shores,
Strengthening the heart,
Empowering the Soul



It’s good to feel you are close to me in the night, love,
invisible in your sleep, intently nocturnal,
while I untangle my worries
as if they were twisted nets.

Withdrawn, your heart sails through dream,
but your body, relinquished so, breathes
seeking me without seeing me perfecting my dream
like a plant that seeds itself in the dark.

Rising, you will be that other, alive in the dawn,
but from the frontiers lost in the night.
from the presence and the absence where we meet ourselves,

something remains, drawing us into the light of life
as if the sign of the shadows had sealed
its secret creatures with flame.

~Pablo Neruda~
