Sonnet of Total Love

I love you so much, my love ... do not sing

The human heart with more truth ...

I love you as a friend and as a lover.

In an always different reality

I love you in the same way,

And I love you beyond, present in longing.

I love you, at last, with great freedom.

Within eternity and every moment.

I love you like an animal, simply,

A love without mystery and without virtue

With a massive and permanent desire.

And to love you so much and often,

Is that one day in your body suddenly

I will die of loving more than I could.

Vinicius de Moraes
