Lost In The Wilderness (by Rumi)

Oh lovers, where are you going?
Who are you looking for?

Your Beloved is right here!
She lived in your own neighbourhood
Her face is veiled
She hides behind screens calling for you

While you search and lose yourself
In the wilderness and the desert
Cease looking for flowers!
There blooms a garden in your own home

While you go looking for trinkets
The treasure house awaits you in your own being

There is no need for suffering
God is here…

Dedicating one of my favourite poems to my favourite couple this Valentine’s! ❤
