Where You Love From.

You've so distracted me,
Your absence fans my love.
Don't ask how.

Then you come near.
"Do not..." I say, and
"Do not...," you answer.

Don't ask why
this delights me.

  4. kyk: gotta keep everyone on their toes and what better way than to quote a little bit of rumi on a thursday morning?

    parenthesis: the wonder of poetry is that it's so mysteriously personal. we all read different things into it.

    mrs b: do *not* get me started woman.

    Possibly. You could also declare a "stilettos only" day.
