A Poem From Patch Adams

J0178632

Puisi ini kiriman dari salah satu temanku, dia tahu aku penggemar film "Patch Adams", thanks a lot…=)

I do not love you as if you were 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 shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms


but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;


thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,


risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,


I love you simply, without problems or pride:


I love you in this way


because I don’t know any other way of loving


but this, in which there is no I nor you,


so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,


so intimate that when I fall asleep


it is your eyes that close………

:. Teringat sahabat lama, kangennn…

    i dont know what to say, this poem full of simplicity but its deep enough to fell…

    There is a such great power in this poem..power of loving, caring and helping together…

    Can u imagine that “red noses”, smiling, or crying for u when you make them eat the “healty” hospital food??

    Can u imagine that “red nose” helping u in a court, when the juror say “your guilty, its malpractice?”

    Can u imagine that “red nose” giving u proud, honour and dignity?..

    That such a beautiful movie….dont sweep your tear, dear..let it flow….
