Rowing isn't for me.
Nor drifting aimlessly.
I'd rather raise my sails,
for rowing isn’t for me.
I prefer to let the winds prevail
whether light draft or force 10 gale.
No, rowing isn’t for me.
Nor drifting aimlessly.

Love- Every Day

I'm walking the tight rope,
holding on to the stick
like it was hope.
That is how we get through life,
walking all alone
with just that one person
constantly giving us hope.

-Unbreakable Love


Not long too ago within the land of the free,
There was an adult named John and woman named lee.

Now, they were infact an interracial couple,
Illegal love that always got them in trouble.

Day after day they were beaten very badly,  
All because people hated seeing them happy.

Their bruised battered faces were beyond recognition,
As a result of an evil institution.

Although they were surrounded by vile racist beast,
The two comely love birds had each other, at least.

But one day the country issued a new decree:
''Hunt the two and rid them of this world quickly.''

So John and Lee were kidnapped by a gang of three,
Who hung the innocent young couple from a tree.

Together forever in life as well as death,
They held each others hands until their dying breath.

Oh Lord, nourish me not with love but with the desire
for love. IBN ‘ARABÎ

Not only the thirsty seek the water,
the water as well seeks the thirsty. RÛMÎ

Ecstasy is a flame which springs up in the secret heart,
and appears out of longing. PAUL NWYIA

Open your hidden eyes and return to the root of the root
of your own self. RÛMÎ

The inner truth of desire is that it is a restive motion in
the heart in search of God. AL-QUSHAYRÎ

excerpts from "Travelling the Path Of Love  Sayings of Sufi Masters"

My clothes are heavy, pack animals
with bags full of worries, I have them
washed when I sleep, dried
in the light of the moon, breathe

Water ripples in the dark
of the gorge between the mountains
here and there fireflies
wanting to ***, they dance

in front of me to the bay
the water is still warm
like when I was a child
with mama in the bath

her soft body
the sweet, lukewarm air
that I still can smell
in the light of the moon

I spread my arms and legs
like a peacock
and draw a circle around me
only my body is still here
