When words are a second sight then blindness can rob me of nothing.
I have written in darkness as if I have written in light.

…and if I could not read or write I would be crippled
the soul of words…
if this sight could not recognize the little shapes I saw before me…
if this heart could not feel their essence as I felt the world around me…
if this mind could not understand their meaning, grasp it’s power…
if this hand trembled at [...]

When it rains and the earth is in its dark mood as today I begin to feel my soul lighten. I have forgone the umbrella just to feel the droplets on my face. They are ticklish and cold. And you can see them wetting this page. They covered my glasses so I see through [...]

give me light
if it be darkness illuminated
give me then darkness
if darkness be thy sight
give me thy vision
if a vision be that of beauty
give me then the world in glory
if glory be a tune of stillness
give me then the raising of the early dawn
and if there be nothing for you to give me
give me then [...]

Twenty-two years of life today and I wonder how have I reached this point. This point in which two decades have gone by, two decades of life, of breathing, of waking and sleeping, of wishing and dreaming, of joys and sorrows – two decades. It hardly seems real that such a long expanse [...]

Let rivers flow
Flow red with hate
Flow red with vengeance
Let rivers flow
Flow red with man
Flow red with child
Let rivers flow
Flow red with blood
Strom red blood
Life blood
Let rivers flow
Flow and empty
Empty into oceans
Red oceans
Red rivers
Red valleys
Red skies
To every birth red
Every child red
For whose sight is red
Breathe red
Eat red
Sleep to red
Awaken to red
Red to dawn
Red to demise
Every beat [...]
"A Year with Rumi: Daily Readings" by Coleman Barks
"O wave! Plunge headlong into the dark seas,
And change thyself with many a twist and turn;
Thou wast not born for tile solace of the shore;
Arise, untamed, and find a path for thyself."
- Allama Muhammad Iqbal
