Looks - through which the poetry of love is expressed

11/08/2013

Love between two people so often begins with the exchange of a look! They meet, and the first time they gaze into each other’s eyes they feel a pure joy, as if they were drinking crystal-clear water flowing down from mountain peaks. It is when they want to come closer and have other exchanges that things begin to get complicated and unclear. The best exchanges are those made through a look. You will say it is impossible to be satisfied with a gaze. Yes, of course, most human love affairs will bear this out. But are there any men or women who do not feel nostalgic when they think of the first time their eyes met, of the whole infinitely poetic world that was revealed to them at that moment?
