Don't go to sleep, you

long to love, dare to do it --


and don't go to sleep!
Ghazal 171 "A great wagon" part 4: "The breeze at dawn" (13th century, Mohamed Rumi)

Collection "Love Mind and Death"
I can see a faint plume of smoke rising from your heart, accompanied by a burnt-flesh odour, which I believe is the result of your remarkable prayer to God to right a world plagued by apathy toward the impoverished.
He was a poet
She, a professor of english
When ever he’d share his heart
she’d correct his feelings

I am a dreamer.
I vision things that don't yet exist.

I am a stubborn believer.
I believe my visions come true.

I am limitless.
I dream big dreams.

It was taken
away

and I’ve been
trying
to catch it
ever since.
