i keep this heart of mine sheltered behind walls of a rose, but it is not my wish to be known for her petals, no - i desire to soak myself in her scent within. i mean i ache for a beauty only my Beloved is aware about, an inner sweetness that transcends up to the seventh heaven without a single eye seeing. that when i walk outside on a cloudy day, the sky would blush at my sight and instead of rain tear up in rose water. that when i inhale the earth’s faint breeze i would give it something back by leaving some of my fragrance with every breathe i take. and that when the time comes my soul would leave to Him, i would be remembered by my goodness and gratitude, my kindness and patience in such a way that even the angels would like to dip their wings into my perfume.
