“Be empty of worrying.
Think of who created thought!
Why do you stay in prison
When the door is so wide open?”
― The Essential Rumi

“I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that way.
Whoever brought me here will have to take me home.”

“You try to be faithful
And sometimes you're cruel.
You are mine. Then, you leave.
Without you, I can't cope.
And when you take the lead,
I become your footstep.
Your absence leaves a void.
Without you, I can't cope.
You have disturbed my sleep,
You have wrecked my image.
You have set me apart.
Without you, I can't cope.”
