Poem "This Is How I Want You, Love" [Pablo Neruda]
This is how I want you, love,
like this, my love, is how I like you,
just as you dress
and how you arrange
your hair and how
your mouth smiles,
agile like the water
from the spring over pure stones,
this is how I want you, beloved,
I don't need bread to teach me wisdom,
but rather not to miss
every passing day.
Of light, I know nothing, neither
whence it comes nor whither
it goes, I just want it to illuminate,
and I don't ask the night for explanations either,
I await it and it envelops me,
and thus you, bread and light
and shadow are.
You came into my life
with what you brought,
made
of light and bread and shadow, I awaited you,
and this is how I need you,
this is how I love you,
and those who tomorrow want to hear
what I won't tell them, let them read it here
and step back today because it's too early
for such arguments.
Tomorrow we'll give them only
a leaf from the tree of our love, a leaf
that will fall upon the earth
as if our lips had produced it,
like a kiss fallen
from our invincible heights
to show the fire and tenderness
of a true love.
