The Ocean In Me Greets the Ocean In Him
Quote by: Rumi
(You are not a drop in the ocean but an entire ocean in one drop)
Beaten and whipped scoured and wrung like a dish cloth
am I
inside this night gown the sweat and grime of a lifetime
am I ?
Fish or woman master or slave of my own self
am I
good or bad demon or saint I don't really know who
I am
Then he sings to me a song I knew from my childhood
" The I Am " song....
and suddenly, I'm fire, I'm host and all of the above
I am a child hungry to eat his word and drink His love
I am His and He is mine
Together we are...
