Quote by Pablo Neruda
Well, nowIf little by little you stop loving meI shall stop loving youLittle by littleIf suddenly you forget meDo not look for meFor I shall already have forgotten youIf you think it long and mad the wind of banners that passes through my lifeAnd you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have rootsRememberThat on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my armsAnd my roots will set off to seek another land
Summary
This quote portrays the nature of love and the reciprocal nature of affection. The passage suggests that if someone gradually falls out of love, the other person will eventually stop loving them as well. Similarly, if one person forgets the other, they should not bother searching for them, as the sentiment of love will no longer exist. The quote also emphasizes the idea that if someone decides to leave when life becomes tumultuous, the person being left behind will eventually find new beginnings and embark on a journey to discover a different place of solace.
