In literature as in love,
we are astonished at
what is chosen by others.
– André Maurois –
I sent my soul through the invisible,
some letter of that After-life to spell:
and by and by my soul return’d to me,
and answer’d : ‘I myself am Heav’n and Hell
– Omar Khayyám –
there was a boy
a very strange
enchanted boy
they say he wandered
very far, very far
over land and sea
a little shy and sad of eye
but very wise was he
and then one day
one magic day
he passed my way
while we spoke
of many things
fools and kings
this he said to me
the greatest thing
you’ll ever learn
is just to love and
be loved in return …
Written by: Eden Ahbez
… Coming like a rose
Tell me like a beast
I was a ghost
Hunted and fled
Bleeding
I was only falling in love …

RY X – Only
you’re already naked in this world
in this time
in this life
beacause your next love
your next hunger
you next laughter
and even your next tear
may never come
– Baharak Sedigh –
No one else was as close and as open,
No one else so boiled my blood,
Even he, who consigned me to torment,
Even he, who caressed and forgot.
– Anna Akhmatova – White Flock
Sunset in the ethereal waves:
I cannot tell if the day
is ending, or the world, or if
the secret of secrets is inside me again.
– Anna Akhmatova –
