Music and love

It acts like love - music,
it reaches towards the face , touches it and tries to let you know
His promise : that all will be ok

It acts like love - music , and
tells the feet: "You do not have to be so burdened"

My body is covered with wounds this world made
But I still long to kiss Him, even when God said,
" Could you also kiss the hand that caused each scar,
for you will not find Me until you do ."

It does that - music - helps us to forgive

(a poem by Rabia, 717-801, an islamic saint and prostitute)
