[mood|
productive- HA!!]
[music| still my stomach growling- i should get food ]
i really should be studying for my finals. but what am i doing instead? making a Jeeves/Wooster wallpaper for my computer, that's what. *smacks forehead again* i'm not sure how pleased i am with it, but if i don't 'finish' and post it now, i'll be working on it all night and i have 3 finals to study for.
it's only 800x600 and yeah... the poem is called 'THE AWAKENING' by Rumi and i found it here. or just the poem:
THE AWAKENING
In the early dawn of happiness
you gave me three kisses
so that I would wake up
to this moment of love
I tried to remember in my heart
what I’d dreamt about
during the night
before I became aware
of this moving
of life
I found my dreams
but the moon took me away
It lifted me up to the firmament
and suspended me there
I saw how my heart had fallen
on your path
singing a song
Between my love and my heart
things were happening which
slowly slowly
made me recall everything
You amuse me with your touch
although I can’t see your hands.
You have kissed me with tenderness
although I haven’t seen your lips
You are hidden from me.
But it is you who keeps me alive
Perhaps the time will come
when you will tire of kisses
I shall be happy
even for insults from you
I only ask that you
keep some attention on me.
