"The quest of Love changes us. There is no seeker among those who search for Love who has not matured on the way. The moment you start looking for Love, you start to change within and without."

— Shams of Tabriz, via Jalal ad-Din Rumi, via Elif Shafak’s The Forty Rules of Love

"If the heart isn’t there,
how can the body speak?
If the heart doesn’t seek,
how can the body seek?"

— Jalaladdin Rumi

"I want to see you.
Know your voice.
Recognize you when you
first come ‘round the corner.
Sense your scent when I come
into a room you’ve just left.
Know the lift of your heel,
the glide of your foot.
Become familiar with the way
you purse your lips
then let them part,
just the slightest bit,
when I lean in to your space
and kiss you.
I want to know the joy
of how you whisper
“more."

Rumi

Flawless Poetry.

"You wander from room to room
Hunting for the diamond necklace
That is already around your neck"

"

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right-doing,
there is a field. I’ll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.

Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
doesn’t make any sense.

"

I’ll Meet You There by Jalaladdin Rumi (translation by Coleman Barks)
