I don't normally post anyone else's poetry, but this 14th century Iranian poet may be one of the greatest poets of all time. His name was Hafiz...
I don't know if this is the whole poem or just an excerpt, but it made my heart melt... and it makes me want to write poetry so bad that it hurts...
"Ever
since happiness
heard your name
it has been
running through
the streets trying
to find you."
-hafiz

the one
that used to be
western insanity
cultural humanity
I met a girl
she seemed so sad
but i was wrong
she wanted to be touched
her mind to be touched
dying of thirst
in the darkness of day
i prefer
the lightness of dark
to the darkness of day
you say to me
only what u
want me to be
be quiet
be quiet
and listen to me
words as notes
words as beat
words as art
words as life
they are nothing to waste
she sat with me
the turning of tide
empty and free
she sat by my side
back to the
far side of time
she came from Jesus
she kept coming back
I'll never see her again
but

talking about
