Anna Akhmatova is a genius Russian poet; her eloquence renders me speechless everytime, and I find her words translate my feelings for you in a great manner. This is a small excerpt from a fugitive piece of hers.
«(...) you are many years late; how happy I am to see you».
I’m obsessed with Fernando Pessoa and there are poems that often make me think of you.
“And I like him so much that I don't know how to wish for it. If I don't see him, I imagine him and I'm as strong as the tall trees. But if I see him, I tremble, I don't know what is made of what I feel in his absence. I'm all any force that abandons me. The whole reality looks at me like a sunflower with his face in the middle.”
