I do not love you except because I love you;

hi friends, this poem defines and puts words to my feelings ...
i love him and i hate him ... i wait for him and i do not want to wait for him ...
I do not love you except because I love you;
I go from loving to not loving you,
From waiting to not waiting for you
My heart moves from cold to fire.
I love you only because it's you the one I love;
I hate you deeply, and hating you
Bend to you, and the measure of my changing love for you
Is that I do not see you but love you blindly.
Maybe January light will consume
My heart with its cruel
Ray, stealing my key to true calm.
In this part of the story I am the one who
Dies, the only one, and I will die of love because I love you,
Because I love you, Love, in fire and blood.
-- Pablo Neruda
How about your love ... ? share your thoughts
cheers

Love??? So confusing at times. Pulls us in every direction, doesn't it? Maybe because we haven't found the right one?

O right one
Where are you
Do you exist
Will I ever find you
Do not hide
I will treat you right
My heart yearns for you
So does my very fiber
Converse with me
Forget the morning
Listen to my music
Touch my soul
Stop running
Stop hiding
I wait
For you

I could understand your mood about puzzling love,for I have had the same confusion.
I don't sure in the end I love her or not,but I konw I can't leave her.This trouble
around me day and night leave me can't sleep some times.Now I am relieved,because I
finally realize that love is love which is so simple that not necessary to think so much.Please to love bravely.

hi clouds,
the story here is you love someone so much so that you are willing to do anything to the extend of forgeting what pain or harm they have caused you .. because the base of everthing is you wanting to be with that person , no matter what even giving up your "individuality"
cheers
