Three Pearls
Sunday, September 26, 2010 By Maryam
Three pearls fell down the river, from my broken necklace. I let them go, let them see what I couldn’t, let them encounter adventures I would never dream of.
But don’t look at us, the pearls said while I glanced from the distance, and my feet started to wallk back home over the dusty ground.
Look at the pearls of the Unseen, you are lucky, we are almost there, and we are tears now. Not pearls. You are lucky, they said, for the waiting, the searching, the seeking, is the whole adventure, the great reward, where rivers of pearls become tears of joy. We are now tears going to encounter the ocean of Love. But you are still not there, so feel and cry, and suffer and smile and struggle, because this is where all the signs of Love can lead you to be what we are now. And I sighed and desired to be them.

The Shadow of your Soul
Saturday, March 20, 2010 By Maryam
Where is the shadow of your soul?
It rests silent among the chaos;
it looks for a sparkle of light to be gone;
suddenly, a myriad of joy reflects upon your soul, dismissing the echoes of terrible nights, wondering, wandering, for the perfect flower, the perfect bird, the perfect love.
The shadow awaits, in silence, until you give to your soul the delicious tears, the miracle of tasting the bitterness with joy.
Then, it goes away, waiting to return, to be sheltered in your heart’s lap, until you understand that it is what makes you desire the Light of Lights. Until you understand it is a companion you are aware of, forever in your path.
Do not ignore it, just embrace it. Like the child who has no mother, transform the sadness into laughter, into Love. Do not ignore what is giving you the Desire to attain True Love. After all, it is also a guide, a silent guide that brings you to the contrary way, the way you follow when you Love. Be always thankful to the wrong things that happen in your life, because they are the key to your inner strength. The shadow of your soul follows you, no matter what.

Dreams
Saturday, November 24, 2007 By Maryam

I want to loose myself in this unknown path
Follow the footsteps,
Reach the dream
I want to feel,
Vibrate with emotion,
And allow myself to be taken by the wind,
The ocean,
Never forgetting I am lost in nothingness,
In everything,
In this life that breathes life
Through roads un-named,
Where questions cease to exist
Where there are no doubts and no expectations,
And nothing succumbs to depression.
To know that I do not know where I am,
Yet I am, I exist, I survive within my own dream.
I want to know that hands throw kisses of love,
Without discriminating who they reach.
Sprinkle the stars with tenderness
And slide along the sparkle of their eyes.
I want to wait, and wake, and feel in that moment
As if it would never happen
As if, still a little girls,
I suddenly came to know the meaning of everything
Without even knowing how to read
The more I know, the further I am from discovering
the true way of “knowin”, observing, meditating,
and throwing myself into the great vacuum of the Everything.

Sueños
Wednesday, October 03, 2007 By Maryam

Quiero perderme en la bruma incierta,
seguir los pasos,
alcanzar el sueño.
Quiero sentir,
vibrar de emoción,
al dejarme llevar por el viento, el mar,
sin dejar de saber que estoy sumida en la nada,
en el todo, en esa vida que emana vida,
por los caminos sin nombre,
donde las preguntas no existen,
donde nadie duda, nadie espera,
nadie sucumbe a la pesadumbre.
Saber que no sé dónde estoy,
pero soy, existo, perduro en mi propio sueño.
Saber que las manos lanzan besos de amor
sin distinguir a quién van dirigidas.
Salpicar de cariño las estrellas
y deslizarme por el brillo de sus pupilas.
Quiero esperar a despertar, quiero sentir ese momento
como si nunca fuese a suceder.
Como si, todavía niña,
fuese a conocer el gran significado de todo,
sin saber apenas leer.
Porque cuanto más sé más lejos estoy de discurrir,
la verdadera forma de conocer, observar, meditar...
Y lanzarme al vacío del Todo

God protects the soul and spirit of those
who have so much to give.
We are sourrounded by many like us
and we are never alone.

and an old star dies.
Every second I learn a new thing
and I leave aside the
old not useful habits."

Palabras de Sufí.-
Thursday, May 03, 2007 By Maryam
Mis ojos imploran ver esa luz.
Pero nunca podrán realizar el deseo.
Mis ojos pueden ver los colores más hermosos, pero en los sueños puedo ver con los ojos del corazón los colores que Dios me ofrece de una forma que perdura en mi memoria a través del tiempo.
El corazón recuerda unos ojos verdes que me observan desde arriba, un balcón con destellos de sol que no hieren mis párpados, un cielo en la alborada más poética, con sus tonos azulados que perduran en la memoria por su belleza imparable.
Los colores en los sueños son más hermosos puesto que son limpios de cualquier rastro ambiental. No existen barreras que hieran las pupilas, ni elementos que mitiguen los colores. Unicamente existe nuestro sueño y todo cuanto Dios nos ofrece de imaginación e inteligencia para contemplar los más hermosos colores, algunos de ellos imposibles de describir o de pintar.
El color es un instrumento de comunicación con Dios.
Verde (Amarillo , Azul)
