What have you done to me?
I was an ascetic,
Independent of the world,
now my feet are lifted against my will,
This body turns in spite of itself,
And if I stop the music with my fingers,
The music only plays louder.
I tried to hide my heart but you found it and stole it
And now nothing of myself remains
But this puppet which turns and turns.
Rumi


I love that image... and Rumi, I love me some Rumi.
