Rumi

I choose to love you in silence…
For in silence I find no rejection,

I choose to love you in loneliness…
For in loneliness no one owns you but me,

I choose to adore you from a distance…
For distance will shield me from pain,

I choose to kiss you in the wind…
For the wind is gentler than my lips,

I choose to hold you in my dreams…
For in my dreams, you have no end.

Rumi

The question is how to check you really love someone?

Oh Toronto

Oh Toronto I leave you now
With you somewhere in the distance
As usual far away
With all of my asking
did not cross the line in the sand

You carried us in our world of dreams
With you eyes focus forward
Strong on your decisions
That you made months ago

You talk and talk about love
But not to be a lover
I showed you the wind and leafs
And their beautiful dance
Asked you to come and dance with me
You smiled and did not say yes

I showed you the water and the dam
How they danced around each other
Sometimes
Smooth like a laminar flow
Sometimes
Fighting like the way you dance

In my dream
I touch you
Curve after curve
Line after line
When you were looking at the waterfall
I touch where the lines and curves merges so beautifully
With hope of you remembering how to dance

I showed you the birds
Following each other
In love
In hope that you remember
Our dance

We walked and talked
We talked and walked
I asked you to plant a tree there
When I am gone
With a writing that

In memory of him
He is gone
He loved me too much
But he was constrainted
I understand that
He was my chopol

We walked back
We drove back toward the dancing towers
Reminding me on how beautiful you dance

You let me discover the softness of your skin
You let me to touch the flowerbed
I could not see the color
But could feel the warmth
I could put my finger under the line
And feel feel the curve

Then you are gone
I am left in this city alone
All by myself

Oh Toronto I leave you now
With you somewhere in the distance
As usual far away
With all of my asking
did not cross the line in the sand
