This poem by Rumi hints at a quiet longing to move beyond the self. It carries a gentle openness, a willingness to let go of control, and in that stillness, a deeper clarity begins to grow.

Mawlana Jalaluddin Mohammad Balkhi, popularly known as "Rumi", is a 13th-century Sufi poet. Today, he is recognised as one of the greatest poets who ever lived, due in part to how his words seem to speak to the Divine.
