It was my destiny to love and say goodbye.

It was my destiny to love and say goodbye.

Pablo Neruda

Goodbye, Saying Goodbye, Destiny

Pablo Neruda (1984). “Still Another Day”, Port Townsend : Copper Canyon Press

The morning is full of storm in the heart of summer. The clouds travel like white handkerchiefs of goodbye, the wind, travelling, waving them in its hands. The numberless heart of the wind beating above our loving silence. Orchestral and divine, resounding among the trees like a language full of wars and songs.

Pablo Neruda

Summer, Goodbye, Song

We the mortals touch the metals, the wind, the ocean shores, the stones, knowing they will go on, inert or burning, and I was discovering, naming all the these things: it was my destiny to love and say goodbye.

Pablo Neruda

Goodbye, Ocean, Destiny
