Can you learn a language from its songs of love?
I don’t think so.
Love is not compared with the things and actions closest to hand,
The things we have always with us.
It is also not a vacation or a meal at a restaurant.
But I want you to love me as familiar as
a snack, a book, a pencil
or the window, or your shoes and socks.
It is true that love is more fundamental than these,
but harder to understand.
Even when you leave these things, my love is with you.
