Poem:
Admit something:
Everyone you see, you say to them, “Love me”
Of course you do not do this out loud, otherwise
Someone would call the police.
Why not instead become the one who lives
With a full moon in each eye that is always saying,
With that sweet moon language, what every other eye
Is dying to hear?
- Hafiz
So, do Muslims are Jews believe the same thing? Lmk in the comments ;)
