326/365 My love affair with the moon

The sky Is a suspended blue ocean. The stars are the fish That swim.

The planets are the white whales I sometimes hitch a ride on,

And the sun and all light Have forever fused themselves

Into my heart and upon My skin.

There is only one rule On this Wild Playground,

For every sign Hafiz has ever seen Reads the same.

They all say,

“Have fun, my dear; my dear, have fun, In the Beloved’s Divine Game,

O, in the Beloved’s Wonderful Game.” -Hafiz

I am forever in love with the night. I had whispered so many secrets to the moon, had it witnessed so many things I can never tell anyone. It had always been looking out for me.
