"You are my life, you are my life, my life; you are my own, you are my own, my own.
You are my king, worthy of my passion; you are my candy, worthy of my teeth.
You are my light; dwell within these eyes of mine, O my eyes and fountain of life!"

— Rumi

in every atom of creation
yet our petty desires keep it hidden."

although you belong to all the world.
I wait with silent passion for one gesture
one glance from you."

— Rumi

You are the entire ocean in a drop."

— Rumi

"I am smiling at myself today
There’s no wish left in this heart
Or perhaps there is no heart left
Free from all desire
I sit quietly like Earth
My silent cry echoes like thunder
Throughout the universe
I am not worried about it
I know it will be heard by no one
Except me."

— Rumi

"Love is best when mixed with anguish."
