Analysis of In the Same Space
Constantine P. Cavafy 1863 (Alexandria) – 1933 (Alexandria)
Environment, of house, of city centres, city quarters
Which I look upon and where I walk; years and years.
I have created you in the midst of joy and in the midst of sorrows;
With so many circumstances, with so many things.
And you have been made sensation, the whole of you, for me.
