I know exactly how Pablo Neruda was feeling when he wrote this beautiful love sonnet.
When he writes "I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul."
He is refering to a secret love. One that he has to keep to himself, within himself...yet a love so strong and binding that nothing else can measure up to or compare to it.
He did not just sit down and write this sonnet for the heck of it. He wrote this while feeling all of those things and unlike most of us he found a way of putting it on paper.
This isn't a sonnet about new love or married love or age old love.. it's clearly a sonnet about a forbidden love so strong that it reaches into him and pulls out everything he's ever known... or not known about himself and what he believes real love would feel like.
I understood and could feel every word of the sonnet.

Don’t walk behind me, I may not lead. Don’t walk in front of me, I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

It's possible if you're a great poet like Neruda, otherwise I guess you'd just stumble along like the rest of us. Love is love.

Read the poem, read it again, then read it again.
What you feel is what the poem is about. (within limitations of what words he is using)

This poem speaks so loudly to that question on both lovers minds "why me" "why do you love me"...and yet this rings true...without knowing how or why or from where...darkly in that secret place...it is my favorite poem to date!
