There are different wells in your heart. Some fill with each good rain, Others are far too deep for that.
In one well You have just a few precious cups of water,
That ‘love’ is literally something of yourself, It can grow as slow as a diamond If it is lost.
Your love Should never be offered to the mouth of a stranger,
Only to someone Who has the valor and daring To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife
Then weave them in a blanket to protect you.
There are different wells within us. Some fill with each good rain,
Others are far, far too deep for that.
Hafez was among the greatest poets of ancient Persia and wrote truly inspired poetry about love and mystical reunion with God. https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poets/detail/hafez
