Break the Addiction to Blame: The External Reflects the Internal: Giving Birth Leads to Death and Rebirth: Healing the Father Wound: Which Do You Choose? I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride; so I love you because I know no other way than this: Till then my windows ache. I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too. You know how this is: Well, now, if little by little you stop loving me I shall stop loving you little by little. If suddenly you forget me do not look for me, for I shall already have forgotten you. If you think it long and mad, the wind of banners that passes through my life, and you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots, remember that on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms and my roots will set off to seek another land.

But if each day, each hour, you feel that you are destined for me with implacable sweetness, if each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me, ah my love, ah my own, in me all that fire is repeated, in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten, my love feeds on your love, beloved, and as long as you live it will be in your arms without leaving mine.

Because of you, in gardens of blossoming Flowers I ache from the perfumes of spring.

John 3:16 - The Story of Love

I have forgotten your face, I no longer Remember your hands; how did your lips Feel on mine? Because of you, I love the white statues Drowsing in the parks, the white statues that Have neither voice nor sight. I have forgotten your voice, your happy voice; I have forgotten your eyes. Like a flower to its perfume, I am bound to My vague memory of you. I live with pain That is like a wound; if you touch me, you will Make to me an irreperable harm. Your caresses enfold me, like climbing Vines on melancholy walls. I have forgotten your love, yet I seem to Glimpse you in every window.

Because of you, the heady perfumes of Summer pain me; because of you, I again Seek out the signs that precipitate desires: Shooting stars, falling objects. I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. On nights like this, I held her in my arms. I kissed her so many times under the infinite sky. She loved me, sometimes I loved her.
