"Twenty"

I remember when I was in high school, my literature teacher spoke about Pablo Neruda and introduced me to his books. I thought that Twenty Love Poems and a Song Despair was the most beatiful book I had read in my life.  Today I want to talk about the poem "Twenty".  This poem brings me back to my teenager days.
In "Twenty" the writer evokes with nostalgia his ex-girlfriend, but more than describing her, he describes the feelings that experienced. First, he felt loved, second, he felt in love. Is easy for the reader to percives loneliness and melancholy and how the pain intensifies thoughout he poem, finally acceptance of his loss.
I don't remember any special circunstances about this poem in my high school years,  I think ths is one of my favorite poems because of my romantic nature. This poem is significant for me because I shared it with my best friend, who shares my taste in literature and also thought it was romantic; so much that he gave me a book entitled Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair and One Hundred Love Sonnets the following Valentine's Day.
