Quote Me Rumi - For Contest
Rage festered within my wounded soul
darkness swallowing all hope, peace
a wingless dove – denied….. Truth the
lifeless lie of separation’s connectedness.
Eyes closed – I saw the horror of my helplessness
listened to fear’s deafening roar, tasted the
bitterness of the victim – and prayed
to the god of my emptiness for fulfillment.
Awakened to the cold of unfelt sunshine,
smiled into the vision of a day.
