“الـــعَيْـنُ تُبـْـصِرُ مَن تَهْوَى وتَفقده
ونَاظِرُ القَلْبِ لا يَخْلُو مِـــن الـنَظَر
إن كَانَ لَيْسَ مَعْى فَالذِكرُ مِنهُ مَعْي
يَرَاهُ قَلْبِى وإنّ غَابَ عَنْ بَصَرِي
ُالوَجْدُ يُطربُ مَن فِي الوَجْدِ رَاحتٌه
ُوالوَجْدُ عِنْدَ وُجُودِ الحَقِّ مَفَقُود
قَدْ كَانَ يُوحِشُني وَجدْي ويُؤنِسُني
ُلِرُؤيةِ وَجْدِ مَن فِي الوَجْدِ موجود”
― الحلاج

“I had my first dream about you last night.
Really? She smiles. What was it about?
I don't remember exactly but the whole time I was dreaming, I knew you were mine.”
― Lang Leav, Love & Misadventure

“This morning, with her, having coffee”
― Johnny Cash

“And you became like the coffee,
In the deliciousness,
and the bitterness
and the addiction.”
― Mahmoud Darwish
