Self-Knowledge

Roses are red 

Violets are blue 

I’ve heard so many lies 

What is truth? 

One day I walked into a store 

Alone 

I now sing my own songs

No intention

I wanted to roam 

And to my surprise 

Roses are black 

And Violets…

Violets are too

Your hearts know in silence the secrets of the days and the night. But your ears thirst for the sound of your heart’s knowledge. You would know in words that which you have known in thought. You would touch with your fingers the naked body of your dreams. And it is well you should. For self is a sea boundless and measureless.
— Kahlil Gibran
