Acts of Helplessness
by Rumi
Here are the miracle-signs you want: that you cry through the night and get up at dawn, asking, that in the absence of what you ask for your day gets dark, your neck thin as a spindle, that what you give away is all your own, that you sacrifice belongings, sleep, health, your head, that you often sit down in a fire like aloes wood, and often go out to meet a blade like a battered helmet.

At night, your beloved wanders....
Heads Up!
I’m going to be posting a lot of Rumi.
