My Blue Birds

I saw you, and a little bird in my heart went free. It flew to the highest branches, to sing for you. I saw you, and all the words became poems. All the sounds became songs, and all the chains became wings. I saw you, and I changed. A little flower inside me sprouted and kept growing, until it took all over me. I saw you, and suddenly life and death had a new meaning. I died thousands of times in your tears and I was born with your smile, again. "We are born of love. Love is our mother." ~Rumi
