Pablo Neruda - Clenched Soul

Pablo Neruda - Clenched Soul

We have lost even this twilight. br No one saw us this evening hand in hand br while the blue night dropped on the world. br br I have seen from my window br the fiesta of sunset in the distant mountain tops. br br Sometimes a piece of sun br burned like a coin in my hand. br br I remembered you with my soul clenched br in that sadness of mine that you know. br br Where were you then? br Who else was there? br Saying what? br Why will the whole of love come on me suddenly br when I am sad and feel you are far away? br br The book fell that always closed at twilight br and my blue sweater rolled like a hurt dog at my feet. br br Always, always you recede through the evenings br toward the twilight erasing statues.
