Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi, the 13th-century mystic poet, was truly one of the most passionate and profound poets in history. Now, today his presence still remains strong, due in part to how his words seem to drip of the divine, and startle a profound remembrance that links all back to the Soul-Essence.

Transcription:
I was ready to tell
the story of my life,
but the ripple of tears
and the agony of my heart
wouldn't let me.

I began to stutter
saying a word here and there
and all along I felt
as tender as a crystal
ready to be shattered.

In this stormy sea
we call life.
all the big ships
come apart
board by board.

How can I survive
riding a lonely,
little boat
with no oars
and no arms.

My boat did finally break
by the waves
and I broke free
as I tied myself
to a single board.

Though the panic is gone,
I am now offended.
Why should I be so helpless
rising with one wave
and falling with the next?

I don't know
if I am
nonexistence
while I exist,
but I know for sure
when I am
I am not
but
when I am not
then I am.

Now how can I be
a skeptic
about the
resurrection and
coming to life again.

Since in this world
I have many times
like my own imagination
died and
been born again.
