THE WOMAN I LOVE

Because the woman I love lives
inside of you,

I lean as close to your body with my words
as I can -

and I think of you all the time, dear pilgrim.

Because the One I love goes with you
wherever you go,
Hafiz will always be near.

If you sat before me, wayfarer,
with your aura bright from your many
charms,

my lips could resist rushing to you and needing
to befriend your blushed cheek,

but my eyes can no longer hide
the wondrous fact of who
you really are.

The beautiful One whom I adore
has pitched His royal tent inside of you,

so I will always lean my heart
as close to your soul
as I can.

(Hafiz)

I often wonder if women and men make different pictures. This is the answer.
