My love for you

has driven me insane.

I wander aimlessly;

the ruins of my life,

my old self,

a stranger to me.

Because of your love,

I have broken with my past.

My longing for you,

keeps me in this moment.

My passion

gives me courage,

I look for you in

my innermost being.

I used to read

the myth of love.

Now I have become

The mythical lover...!!!

Rumi ❤️

... Read morePoetry has a unique way of capturing complex emotions and experiences in a form that resonates across time and cultures. Reading through this piece, it’s clear that love can indeed be a powerful transformative force, reshaping our identities and altering how we view ourselves and the world. Many readers find that poems inspired by Rumi's work invite them to reflect on their own journey of love, loss, and inner growth. From personal experience, embracing the idea of becoming a 'mythical lover' can symbolize stepping beyond ordinary existence and tapping into a profound connection with passion and courage. This metaphor reminds us that love isn’t always about bliss; it often involves breaking away from our past selves and confronting the ruins of our old lives to discover a new, stronger identity. Those who have felt the intensity of longing and passion described here might relate to the feelings of wandering aimlessly—lost yet searching for meaning and connection. Poetry like this offers comfort and a means to channel those emotions creatively rather than letting them overwhelm us. Moreover, exploring the myth of love through such personal reflections encourages readers to consider how cultural narratives shape our understanding of relationships and selfhood. It’s empowering to realize that these myths can be internalized or reimagined, allowing us to become the active creators of our own love stories. In sum, poems inspired by Rumi and other mystical traditions provide a deep reservoir of wisdom and emotion. Engaging with them can enhance our emotional awareness, help us navigate our inner struggles, and inspire courage in our personal growth and relationships.

Halo Glow has new competition?!
I quickly jumped on the Halo Glow trend. Just as quickly I realized that it wasn’t doing it for me. Anyone else feel the same? Well try this out instead!! It’s the same idea I feel, but it is so much prettier on me that the halo glow. And I feel like it gives a lot more glow if ya know what I mean!
