— Rumi

My friends have become strangers
and I’m surrounded by enemies
but I’m free as the wind
no longer hurt by those
who reproach me…
I’m at home wherever I am
and in the room of lovers
I can see with closed eyes
the beauty that dances
behind the veils
intoxicated with love
I too dance the rhythm
of this moving world
I have lost my senses
in my world of lovers…
