Poetry/philosophy
Admit something:
Everyone you see, you say to them,
"Love me."
Of course you do not do this out loud;
Otherwise,
Someone would call the cops.
Still though, think about this,
This great pull in us
To connect.
Why not become the one
Who lives with a full moon in each eye
That is always saying,
With that sweet moon Language,
What every other eye in this world
Is dying to
Hear.
Hafiz
If I were the rain
that binds together the earth and the sky
whom in all eternity will never mingle
would I be able to bind two hearts together?
Here are a few more from Japanese philosophy:
We come together,
Like drops of water, like astral bodies
We oppose each other
Like magnets, like the colors of skin
Yes, there is no Fate for us
Only those who are swallowed by
Ignorance and fear and miss a step
Fall into the rapid river called Fate
We reach out with our hands
Brush away the clouds and pierce the sky
To grab the moon and stars
but we still can't reach the truth
We think a flower on a cliff is beautiful
because we stop our feet at the cliff's edge,
unable to step out into the sky
like that fearless flower.
