NAME:
The Close – Vanessa Veríssimo
When I met you
So many dreams came to me
I saw being born inside me
Feelings so strange
love hovering in the air
Like the dawn sun
so much shine in your smile
I gave you a close up
my look in your gaze
reflected in the mirror
shook my heart
With the color of a red hue
Did I say I love you
But I could not
I stayed still
Seeing the wind take you, if I were a leaf with the wind I could go too
How did I let it happen like this
was here beside me so close
This love that shines brighter every day
But sometimes I speak from my heart, it says time is the solution
What the wind takes the same wind brings

the conjunction
Note the sentences:
“I meant I Love you, but I did not make it…"
"This love what shines more every day…”
If we eliminate the highlighted words, the sentences will lose much of their meaning, see:
“I meant I Love you, I couldn't…”
“This love shines brighter every day…”
This happens because these words are the links between the sentences, serving, therefore, to bring them together in the utterance. They belong to the class of conjunctions.
the conjunction it also links prayers expressing diverse ideas.
Note the difference in meaning caused by the conjunctions in the following sentences:
ate apple and I drank some cold juice.
In this example, the conjunction and indicates that one statement has been added to another. I ate apple + drank a cold juice. As the idea is of addition, it is a conjunction additive.
“I meant I Love you, but I did not make it…"
In this example, but it indicates that there is an opposition between what the poetic self meant (I love you) and what happened (not able to). There is a breach of expectation. this is a conjunction adversative, that is, it indicates an adverse fact, contrary to what was expected.
“When I met you…"
The conjunction when locates in time the moment when the lyrical self met the loved one. This conjunction is classified as temporal.
"…he says what time is the solution…”
In this case, the conjunction that indicates the cause for solving the problems. Because time is the solution to everything. It is about the conjunction causal.
“…if I was a leaf with the wind I could go too…”
the conjunction if indicates a condition for the lyrical self to go with the wind. What was the condition for the lyrical self to go with the wind? It had to be a leaf. This conjunction is classified as conditional.
