Radwimps - Me Me She

Thursday, August 21, 2003

Good morning peeps! There's nothin' much to say today. Yesterday I went out with Surya and her friends,Just hang out and when night comes we went to the Library @ Orchard. The one in Takashimaya. And while her friend went to search for a book for her projects Surya took some books...and one of them was called.."Love Poems And Literature" So she flip through the book and as she read some of the poems and one of them,made me cried. Come across this really good poem by Pablo Neruda which I wish I was the one writin' it out to someone that I loved...and it really hit me,the poem totally hit my story. I'm goin' to cut and paste it here...

Tonight,I Can Write The Saddest Line by Pablo Neruda

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.

Write for example, 'The night is shattered
and the blue stars shiver in the distance.'

The night wind revolves in the sky and sings.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.

Through nights like this one I held her in my arms.
I kissed her again and again under the endless sky.

She loved me, sometimes I loved her too.
How could one not have loved her great still eyes.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
To think that I do not have her. To feel that I have lost her.

To hear immense night, still more immense without her.
And the verse falls to the soul like dew to a pasture.

What does it matter that my love could not keep her.
The night is shattered and she is not with me.

This is all. In the distance someone is singing. In the distance.
My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

My sight searches for her as though to go to her.
My heart looks for her, and she is not with me.

The same night whitening the same trees.
We, of that time, are no longer the same.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her.
My voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing.

Another's. She will be another's. Like my kisses before.
Her voice. Her bright body. Her infinite eyes.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but maybe I love her.
Love is short, forgetting is so long.

Because through nights like this one I held her in my arms
my soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

Though this be the last pain that she makes me suffer
and these the last verses that I write for her.
