I cannot exist without you - John Keats


I cannot exist without you -I am forgetful of every thing but seeing you again -my Life seems to stop there -I see no further. You have absorb’d me.I have a sensation at the present moment as though I was dissolving -I should be exquisitely miserable without the hope of soon seeing you.  I should be afraid to separate myself far from you.  My sweet Fanny, will your heart never change?  My love, will it?  I have no limit now to my love -You note came in just here -I cannot be happier away from you -‘T is richer than an Argosy of Pearles.  Do not threat me even in jest. I have been astonished that Men could die Martyrs for religion -I have shudder’d at it - I shudder no more - I could be martyr’d for my Religion -Love is my religion -I could die for that -I could die for you.  My Creed is Love and you are its only tenet – You have ravish’d me away by a Power I cannot resist: and yet I could resist till I saw you; and even since I have seen you I have endeavoured often “to reason against the reasons of my Love.”  I can do that no more – the pain would be too great -My Love is selfish -I cannot breathe without you._____________________________________Senza di teNon posso esistere senza di te.Mi dimentico di tutto tranne che di rivederti:la mia vita sembra che si arresti lì,non vedo più avanti.Mi hai assorbito.In questo momento ho la sensazionecome di dissolvermi:sarei estremamente tristesenza la speranza di rivederti presto.Avrei paura a staccarmi da te.Mi hai rapito via l’anima con un poterecui non posso resistere;eppure potei resistere finché non ti vidi;e anche dopo averti vedutami sforzai spesso di ragionarecontro le ragioni del mio amore.Ora non ne sono più capace.Sarebbe una pena troppo grande.Il mio amore è egoista.Non posso respirare senza di te.
