Ampersands & Sonnets

[poemspotatoes]

Hello! I've been stalking on here for quite some time, but now I need some advice.

I recently got married, and I liked the idea of getting an ampersand on my inner left wrist to symbolize the union. Thing is, I feel like wrist tattoos are getting overdone, and I don't want to look back in twenty years and feel like I was part of a fad. (No offense to those of you with one, I really like the placement myself. I guess there's only so many places you can get a tattoo.)

Also, Pablo Neruda's Sonnet XVII (posted below) was read at our wedding, and it means a lot to me and I think it would be really cool to get as a tattoo one day. Only thing is, I can't pick out a good quote from it or think of a good placement.

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

Any thoughts? Any pictures/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
