    We, my group and I, have used this poem as the theme of our music video...
    It turned out great and painful...
    Great because we'd gotten an excellent grade..
    And, painful because the whole poem is about someone who loved a person who will be for someone else...

    I first heard this read in a radio station...
    I fell in love with this piece of work...
    I cried and that was my reaction...
    Because I think the guy just wanted for their love to work...
    I know how hard it is to write...
    When your heart is broken apart...
    Especially in a blank paper so white...
    When you know that the one you love whom you are apart...
    Is residing in the arms of another...
    Which is supposed to be your arms and shoulder...
    Thus, if you can write the saddest lines..
    You must've truly loved her all this times...

    Es 'She loved me, and sometimes I loved her too.'
    me fascina como es directo con lo que trata de decir que es facil identificarse con el poema.

    I love this poem, and reading it's a very inspiring poem to me. Could I just ask that whoever put it up is careful with their typing, 'soul' is spelt 'sould'. I know it's picky, but please it's something I would really appreciate. Cheers.

    ' I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her'

    you couldn't possibly be more beautiful Pablo

    it's heartbreaking indeed to feel again the intensity of loss
