[@unibomberbear6708]

I know. That almost made me, the guy who enjoys heavy metal Lyrics as Poetry, cry. sometimes I feel or think that its so easy , much easier than wars and evacuated politicians to just pursue whatever interests us, so long as you do not step on anyone else's toes while doing it. I dunno how people can just seek someone to follow so they can do what? Poor Devils..

[@a.m.scape_5133]

The begining scene with the hands that seemed to grasp at something that wasn't there, that you shot was very cool. The poem made feel the same, like trying to grasp that peace we all want, but can't seem to find. I can tell your pushing your creativity while keeping viewers happy with the bukowski videos but works like these will make you stand out. Keep going man.

[@illneas]

Thank you for appreciating that shot, I feel similarly about it. It's truly hard to find a balance between what makes me happy and what the viewers want to see. I don't want to create for the sake of views and keep people happy but I don't want at the same time to be selfish. I know that this community is maturing and growing with me and at the end of the day, it will be worth it for both parties. Take care

[@vikingboer756]

Her voice coupled with this seaside imagery and sounds relaxes the tensions that bind the mind and soul for just a moment that we wish could last forever. I haven’t felt this kind of peace in a long long time. Very beautiful🥂

[@illneas]

Yeap, her voice is really relaxing, it affected the way I edited this. Thank you for watching ^^

[@m.qazmis]

[@tommybootlegger]

Neruda's works usually remind me of so many of the abandoned buildings and communities that I see every day while driving to my job. It's an otherworldly feeling reading his words, like sharing a dream that you couldn't explain with someone. Excellent introspective philosophy for these confusing ass covid times.

[@TuncerDemir]

Without noticing, I locked on to the screen, because while watching calming video clips, listening to this beautiful poem from a soothing voice of a lady made my heart and my breathing slow down. I really needed this. This is one of your best works. Please, keep producing. Thanks.

[@illneas]

That's great, thank you for watching ^^

[@emieve617]

I love this, it’s just so appropriate for our current situation. To take a moment to breathe, stop and listen instead of constantly moving in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. So many find themselves forced to do just that and it’s a little frightening when we’re so used to the idea of always having to do something, to always work and be productive. When really we should be able to take a few minutes just to listen, breathe and relax. Her little sighs, longing and exasperated really add to the words as does your imagery of nature and the sea. Thank you for once again sharing a little piece of calm to think on!

[@illneas]

That's the message, taking the time to think in a world that doesn't allow that.

[@tinaw.9485]

For me the most poignant line of this brilliant poem is "the sadness of never understanding ourselves." It is in silence and reflection that we connect with our Inner Divinity, and in that connection we understand that there is only one Being here, indeed only one Being that exists in the Universe, expressing itself in infinite ways. Most of us are looking to have our needs fulfilled from outside of ourselves, when what we truly seek is within. When we find it, we can then see it in all others, and end this "heresy of separation" on Earth. As the Buddha said, a man who truly loves himself cannot hate another. When will we have world peace? When we have a world full of people who have inner peace.

[@safiyyah5250]

That was beautifully written. Thank youu!❤️

[@toughspringrolls]

Sometimes, we have to put our arms down and let go of something that we've been carrying for now or a long time. I believe the poem reminds us not to get lost or carried away on life because it will just keep going while we, are here living in a very brief period. Life, is not all about moving on, making money and name for yourself. It is mostly made up of the little things that mattered to us and gives mean to existence by way of appreciation. I may sound cliché but that's what i think it is.

[@hrithik7711]

This poem holds so much depth in it ❤️

[@breadtheory]

Great video as always! This is a great introduction to Neruda's works. This poem is filled with symbolism which is why Neruda is one of the finest poets ever. Firstly, there is symbolism in the "count to twelve". Twelve is used as a metaphor to signify whole. There are twelve numbers on a clock, twelve months in a year, twelve zodiac signs. Secondly, the word "arms" has double meaning as both signifying physical movement and "moving arms" as in wage wars. Similarly "fisherman" is used in both the senses of actual fisherman and people in position of power. The best part of the poem, I feel, is when the poet says that he doesn't want inactivity and proves how the earth is alive even when all is dead. Simply one of the best poems ever written.
