sacred shore

roll in with the waves
into my soul

I long
to be drowned
in the ebb tide
of your love

That’s exactly what I have been longing to say to someone… its just beautiful the way you express it… Its 4 am here and I always believed there is a good reason for why things work out the way they do… If I had to search for a reason why I am awake, your words would be an excellent reason… Lots of love.

Dear Himani,

Thank you very much for this.

So very, very lovely is the message here. I love the image here of water, sand, shore…This all immediately reminded me of some of the words of Khwaja Hafez:

Take the garment of the Friend in your hand,
and break with the enemy.
Be the wo/man of God,
And free yourself.

The creations you share here are so very lovely.

All good wishes,

robert

Dearest Robert, I’ve missed your words and feedback! Been occupied with med school but finished writing final exams recently so had a chance to post. I hope and pray things are well on your end 🙂 Thank you, too, for the kind words you always leave in this space, they add so much more meaning to these humble words. Loved the little poem by Hafez, indeed in that freedom and surrender, our essence finds peace.

Much love and all my good wishes!
