I have slept with you

DATE: Sep 23, 2011   PHOTOGRAPHER: Albertine

“I have slept with you
and on waking, your mouth,
come from your dream,
gave me the taste of earth,
of sea water, of seaweed,
of the depths of your life,
and I received your kiss
moistened by the dawn
as if it came to me
from the sea that surrounds us.

Pablo Neruda, July 12 1904 – September 23 1973”
