Almost sufi



I was looking for You
in temples
I was looking for You
my Beloved
I heard the echo
of Your voice
but you were not there

I was looking for You

in the mountains
I searched for You
in the valleys
my Beloved
And found only
Your footprint

I was looking for You

my Beloved
until my feet ached
and my body grew weary
I was looking for You
until I fell to the ground
My Love

I stopped looking for You

My Beloved
and my heart burst open
with sadness and pain
It burst open
My Love

And there You were ...

in my heart.
