Text Box: The Intoxication of the Soul

The light of the Rose of Torment has struck my heart,
Pouring its essence of Truth in the furthest part of the heart,
The Art of love in the breast of knowledge,
To sip the elixir of pure bliss from the fountain of life,
A mirror to reflect the purity of the soul,
And an angel to pray for the soul’s release from the prison of life,
From the highest sky above,
Walking on the clouds of knowledge,
Bringing out the blood of love from the deepest piece of the heart,
To celebrate the arrival of morning in the deep night,
To embrace the sun with the fiery kiss of love,
Bringing out the fervour of belonging, of love and complete binding,
In the eyes of the one eternity of love,
Seeing the multiple of eternity of bliss,
Caring for the moon in the breast,
Merrying with the stars above,
Singing the praises of Eternal Love,
And coming to terms with the tragedy of Yesterday,
So as to focus the mind on tomorrow and its enchanting treasures,
Up above in the sky of comprehension,
To finally taste the sweet intoxication of Divine Love.
