How Do I Know.....! By....Rumi

You ask me
who are you
and with such a shaky existence
how can you
fall in love

How do I know
who am I or where I am
how could a simple wave
locate itself
in an ocean

you ask me
what am I seeking
above and beyond
the pure light
that I once was

and why am I
imprisoned in this cage
named body and
yet I claim to be
a free bird

how do I know
how I lost my way
I know for sure
I was all straight
before I was
seduced by love

~ Rumi
