its throb, my heart.
A voice inside the beat
says, "I know you're tired,
but come. This is the way."
– Jeláluddín Rúmí

let stand
becomes clear."

"Knock,
And He'll open the door
Vanish,
And He'll make you shine like the sun.
Fall,
And He'll raise you to the heavens.
Become nothing,
And He'll turn you into everything."
Rumi
