The Song Of Despair Poem by Pablo Neruda
The Song Of Despair
You swallowed everything, like distance.
Like the sea, like time.
In you everything sank!
It was the happy hour of assault and the kiss.
The hour of the spell that blazed like a lighthouse.
Pilot's dread, fury of a blind diver,
turbulent drunkenness of love,
in you everything sank!
it was acc gr8 I was expecting did to be rubbish for some reason idk why but it was acc pretty gud pleasantly surprised
Interesting concept to compare a Kiss as the lighthouse of love. I do agree. Read mine - Despair - Adeline
the ever romantic poet of such great subtleties ' you swallowed everything, like distance/like the sea, like time/ in you everything sank' it did indeed swak
it is Pablo the only universal poet from Hispanic Literature. A roamer life to the last of idealistic and romantic men. this poem pictures the colours of deep dispair.

Jeanie Cummings lists two lines in Spanish and English from " The Song of Despair" at the beginning of her new book, American Dirt. Nothing matches the above words.
This is not the entire poem - go to //poets.org/poem/song-despair which includes the lines in Jeanine Cummins' American Dirt.
