"Clenched Soul" (sometimes titled "We Have Lost Even" or known from its opening line) is one of Pablo Neruda's most touching love poems.    Written by the renowned  Pablo Neruda (1904–1973), a Nobel Prize winner celebrated for his passionate and sensual explorations of love, nature, and human emotion, this piece comes from his early lyrical style. It captures a deep sense of longing, melancholy, and sudden overwhelming remembrance of an absent loved one.  Set against the fading light of twilight and simple, everyday images (like a piece of sun burning like a coin), the speaker's soul tightens in familiar sadness while questioning where the beloved was during moments of intense feeling. The poem beautifully conveys the ache of lost intimacy and the way love can strike unexpectedly, making it a classic example of Neruda's ability to blend tenderness with quiet heartbreak.

A Song Of Despair Poem by Pablo Neruda  The memory of you emerges from the night around me. The river mingles its stubborn lament with the sea. Deserted like the wharves at dawn. It is the hour of departure, oh deserted one! Cold flower heads are raining over my heart. Oh pit of debris, fierce cave of the shipwrecked. In you the wars and the flights accumulated. From you the wings of the song birds rose. You swallowed everything, like distance. Like the sea, like time. In you everything sank! It was the happy hour of assault and the kiss. The hour of the spell that blazed like a lighthouse. Pilot's dread, fury of blind driver, turbulent drunkenness of love, in you everything...

Through nights like this one I held her in my arms I kissed her again and again under the endless sky. She loved me sometimes, and I loved her too. How could one not have loved her great still eyes.
