well depending on the time Neruda wrote this poem you can tell for whom it was.The 100 love sonnets was dedicated I think it was regarding his third wife which he had an affair with when he was with his second wife. I really love this poem in every one of his poems he demonstrates such truthfulness of what he is feeling.

Pablo Neruda, through this Love Sonnet,transfers his varied intense emotions of LOVE to everyone of his readers / listeners. It is not through words, metaphors, style, or thoughts, meanings, views and interpretations . It is by Neruda's magical touch of sounds & vibrations. We read, go about,search and look for meanings until we feel the exact emotions coursing through us.
What is love? A word? A thought? An idea? A fantasy? No, it is nothing but an awe-inspiring fusion of hearts & feelings ... an emotional experience. The last two lines sum it up.
