Day 97 - A picture of something you no longer have


I hate that I lost my [photocopied] copy of this book. I first read it as a freshman in college and it was what made me believe, for all of my disillusions of men, that any man who says he loves his country... should love his woman just as much.

She is country. Home. Shelter.

My college professor (who introduced me to the book) once said, "Pablo Neruda ruined it for every other guy. He wrote what we always wanted to say."
