Love

I came across this quote that I scribbled down in a notebook years ago, that I am now flicking through. Reading it again made my heart skip a beat and my lungs skip a breath, then tears came to my eyes, because I know what it is to love like this. I know how beautiful love can be and I feel so very lucky to have had and to keep having this experience.

"When you come back inside my chest, no matter how far I've wandered off, I look around and see the way. At the end of my life, with just one breath left, if you come then, I'll sit up and sing."

(Birdsong, Rumi)
