Sonnet Xvii Poem by Pablo Neruda

this is one of my favourite poems it is so sad so sincere i love the way he lists the ways he doesn't love her then says how close he feels to her

I love the last stanza, such a contrast to the rest of the poem

This is the one that we chose to have read at our wedding. I LOVE it - especially the last 2 lines and the line about the light of hidden flowers. I've been married 7 years now and looked it up while searching for a poem to help a friend's daughter with her homework. Feeling a little dreamy now.

Aaaaahhh! ! Just brilliant...so much of emotions in such few words.

i absolutly love this poem its in the movie patch ada, s so sad

There's a lot of subtle differences between the English and original Spanish version a lot is lost in translation so I can't imagine how much better the Spanish one is

I love you because I know no other way

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 Because i have no other way than to love you. tony

Fantastic 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.

Better love fix than drugs
