What does it take
To penetrate that heart?
How do I unlock
The doors
To the secret core?
What must I do
To tap into
that mysterious well
of unending love?
How do I request
a meeting with that heart
Guarded in its fortress
Of steel walls
and knights in armor?
Oh God! I rely entirely on You.
To blanket the path ahead
With Your mercy,
Love and harmony.
For only You
Can pierce through
The walls of our hearts
And allow us to feel and taste
That wondrous
That irresistible
Love.
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” – Shaykh Rumi
