Study me as much as you like, you will not know me, for I differ in a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.

I am dying into your mystery, and dying, I am now no other than that mystery. I open to your majesty as an orchard welcomes rain, and twenty times that.

I learned that every mortal will taste death. But only some will taste life.

Whether you love God or you love a human being, if you love enough you will come into the presence of Love itself.

For without you, I swear, the town Has become like a prison to me. Distraction and the mountain And the desert, all I desire.

I hear a drum in my soul's ear coming from the depth of the stars.

You are the drop,and the ocean you are kindness,you are anger, you are sweetness,you are poison. Do not make me more disheartened. you are the chamber of the sun, you are the abode of venus, you are the garden of all hope. Oh, Beloved, let me enter.
