The world is a mountain. Whatever you say, it will echo it back to you. Don't say, "I sang nicely and the mountain echoed an ugly voice!" That is not possible. The human intellect is a place where hesitation and uncertainty take root. There is no way to overcome this hesitation except by falling in love.
-
I will whisper secrets in your ears, just nod yes and be silent. A soul moon appeared in the path of my heart. How precious is this journey
-
Have you ever gotten breathless before from a beautiful face, for i see you there, my dear.
-
I want a trouble-maker for a lover, blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame, who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate, who burns like fire on the rushing sea.
-
I am yours. Don't give myself back to me.

A pearl in the shell does not touch the ocean. Be a pearl without a shell. a mindful flooding. a spark turned to flame. bird settling nest. love lived

For years, copying other people, I tried to know myself. From within, I couldn't decide what to do. Unable to see, I heard my name being called. Then I walked outside.
-
When I am with you, everything is prayer.
-
Do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know the side you are used to is better than the one to come?
-
You’ve so distracted me, your absence fans my love. Don’t ask how. Then you come near. “Do not…” I say, and “Do not…,” you answer. Don’t ask why this delights me.

This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
-
If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?
-
Study me as much as you like, you will never know me, for I differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes, and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.
-
Do not leave me, hide in my heart like a secret, wind around my head like a turban. "I come and go as I please," you say, "swift as a heartbeat." You can tease me as much as you like but never leave me.
-
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there.
-
Try not to resist the changes that come your way. Instead let life live through you. And do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to come?
-
Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.
-
Somewhere beyond right and wrong, there is a garden. I will meet you there.
-
Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.
-
Like the shadow I am and I am not.
-
True beauty is a ray. That springs from the sacred depths of the soul, and illuminates the body, just as life springs from the kernel of a stone and gives colour and scent to a flower.
-
In the blackest of your moments, wait with no fear.

A craftsman pulled a reed from the reedbed, cut holes in it, and called it a human being. Since then, it's been wailing a tender agony of parting, never mentioning the skill that gave it life as a flute
-
My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
