The Sun and the Shadow
Once upon a time
the Beloved came and said:
I posess your love
both day and night-
but you'll never
be my companion
as long as you remain yourself.
I am the Sun
but you are just a shadow,
walking upon the earth.
Step out of hiding
and walk into my light-
once you've been erased,
then you will be
my closest friend.
-Attar
