I do not love you except because I love you; <br />I go from loving to not loving you, <br />From waiting to not waiting for you <br />My heart moves from cold to fire. <br /> <br />I love you only because it's you the one I love; <br />I hate you deeply, and hating you <br />Bend to you, and the measure of my changing love for you <br />Is that I do not see you but love you blindly. <br /> <br />Maybe January light will consume <br />My heart with its cruel <br />Ray, stealing my key to true calm. <br /> <br />In this part of the story I am the one who <br />Dies, the only one, and I will die of love because I love you, <br />Because I love you, Love, in fire and blood.<br /><br />Pablo Neruda<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sonnet-lxvi-i-do-not-love-you-except-because-i-love-you/
