Tastes of Rume ...

Last night

I lost my grip on reality

And welcomed insanity

Love saw me and said:

I showed up

Wipe your tears

And be silent

I said: O Love

I am frightened

But it’s not you

Love said to me:

There is nothing that is not me

Be silent

I will whisper secrets in your ear

Just nod yes

And be silent

A soul moon

Appeared in the path of my heart

How precious is this journey

I said: O Love

What kind of moon is this ???

Love said to me:

This is not for you to question

Be silent

I said: O Love

What kind of face is this

Angelic or Human ???

Love said to me: This is beyond anything that you know

Be silent

I said: Please reveal this to me

I am dying in anticipation

Love said to me:

That is where I want you

Always on the edge

Be silent

You dwell in this hall of

Images and illusions,

Leave this house now

And be silent

I said: O Love

Tell me this

Does the Lord know you are

Treating me this way ???

Love said to me:

Yes He does

You just be silent
