Additional quotes by Rumi

I will be waiting here....
For your silence to break,
For your soul to shake,
For your love to wake!

O my choice beauty
You've gone
But your love remains in my heart
Your image in my eye
O guide on my winding road
I keep turning round and round in the hopes of
Finding you

When I am silent, I have thunder hidden inside.
