A lover, a Healer, and Such Things

Alone, in her far off home of greens and hues of red and purple flowers, she would reminisce about her life and ask herself how much her heart loved people, and if it was ever worth it to feel anything otherwise. She believed in death and rebirth many times in one lifetime; she would look...

In your light I learn how to love In your beauty, how to make poems You dance inside my chest where no one sees you but sometimes I do and that sight becomes this art -Rumi

Paradise; Here
