" The minute I heard my first love story,
I started looking for you, not knowing
how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere,

they're in each other all along."

From Essential Rumi

Dungeon


Captured in your gaze
and chained by my thoughts,
I’m thrown into cold darkness
devoided of hope
for Spring, for sunlight,
for a warm hug,
a walk in a park,
heart-to-heart conversations,
Sundays’ breakfasts in bed,
small acts of love:
you in my life
