Explore "September 8" by Pablo Neruda on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Today, the day was a full glass,
Today, the day was an immense wave,
Today, it was all the earth.
Today the tempestuous sea lifted us in a kiss so high that we trembled in the flash of lightning and, tied together, descended and submerged without unraveling.
Today our bodies became immense, they grew up to the edge of the world and rolled melting themselves into one single drop of wax or meteor.
A new door opened between you and me and someone, still without a face, was waiting for us there.
