Sonnet

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
So I love you because I know no other way than this
Very rare na makatanggap ka ng mga ganyang lines sa cellphone, di ba? Yung iba kasing mga quotes ay super coated ng asukal kahit langgam magkaka-diabetes. As a reward ay hindi ko muna dinelete itong message na 'to.

Wala sa dugo ko ang pagiging poetic pero that line was taken from Pablo Neruda's 100 Sonnets of Love XVII. The sonnet started like this...

I do not love you as if you were a salt rose, or topaz
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
Do women of today still digs poetry? Maybe, maybe not. Pero kung ako ang magsasabi nyan sa harap ng girl, baka magdilim ang mga paningin nila!!!
