I do not love you as if You were salt, rose, or topaz... But the air of carnations... The fire that shoots off... I love you as Certain dark things are to be loved... In secret...between the Shadow and the soul... I love you without knowing How...or from when Or from where... I love you straight-forwardly... Without out complexities or pride... I love you because I know No other way than this!... So close... That your hand on my chest Is my hand... So close... That when you close your eyes... I fall asleep.....
Reason for writing:
All I know is that this was an excerpt from a movie and the author was "Dante"....It's one of the most beautiful love poems I've ever heard....Wish "I" could write like that.... Sorry if it wasn't exactly correct....just to my best recollection....
Birth sign: Pisces
