You & I (How Late the Day)

How late is the day
when you come to me?
I wake from dreams

to dream
of you.

How darkly burns fire
when you whisper my name?
I reach from the world

to a world
with you.

How sweet is salt
when I taste your skin?
You take me from myself

to myself
in you.




You and Me, in 55 Words

I have died to myself
and I live for you.
Rumi
