Rumi


Rumi has been a serious discovery and I feel each verse is simple but cuts within layers of a conscience. Some that have truck a chord are:

If I could say my feelings for Delhi in a way, this would be it - “Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.” 

“The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Don't go back to sleep.” - For my insomnia that begins then.

 “My lips got lost on the way to the kiss - that's how drunk I was.” - To many evenings in Post Grad school staring at the sun go down. 

“The lion is most handsome when looking for food.” - To renewed vigour and hunger for good work.
