Become Silent

There is nothing
more powerful than love.
Even though, it burns the heart
with its tormenting pain.
Those who ascend from this pain
become true lovers,
even their shadows become sacred.
So, do not hide your presence
behind the veil of your fear.
Break the chains that hold you back.
Do not be afraid, be adventurous
in the mystical world of whirling.

Offer your heart to the beloved of ecstasy.
See the moving world through his eyes
that dances to the rhythm of his love.
Intoxicate yourself
with the wine of his essence.
Let your heart dissolve
in the spirit of his presence.
You will become silent
in the sacred beauty of his love.

Love made divine...

"even their shadows become sacred..." Wow! What a beautiful expression. This poem feels like a spiritual love and the sentiments swirl and uplift this love to the heavens. (looks like I got the same feelings from this as your previous commenter!)
So beautiful, thank you for sharing....alby

Absolutely loved this! Very bold statement from the start "nothing more powerful than love" then I like the "mystical world of whirling". Creating the image love is both powerful and fantasy at the same time! You have captured the essence of true love in this one piece. Great write!....Niteskyy

we all need inspiration and this certainly hits the spot.
gorgeous my friend
God bless...Pisces

Superb

Ah, a very fine write, indeed. You expressed yourself quite well. This also reminds of the Essay on Love, in the book: "The Prophet", by Kahlil Gibran.

Awhirl with appreciation...

You have brought a marvelous spiritual dance to us with this write, my friend. The mystical dance of the Whirling Dervish has always been hypnotic for me and this poem brings all the color, vibrance and mysticism to my heart in a rush of wind and beautiful imagery. Your final line is so true..."You will become silent in the sacred beauty of his love."...and the invitation is enticing: "Do not be afraid, be adventurous in the mystical world of whirling." Love this one. Peace, Rhonda

I love this poem..sounds like what I am going to be going through soon with someone..letting down walls..

become true lovers,"..great line! luv2dream

I am completely speechless with this piece, woah!
This one has a lovely message about love and what it offers; I like the fact that it acknowledges that are oft times associated with loving someone, but then it provides a solution for how to overcome those setbacks. Pear

Touching

You will become silent
in the sacred beauty of his love
