Only God knows the limits of inifinte His Kingdom <br />Humans know to the confines of their finite mind. <br /> <br />I lost my mind and heart I could not figure out <br />Where the world of beauty and love begins <br />- and where it ends. <br /> <br />From earth to sky stretches an eerie wilderness <br />I kow not the extent of the ruins <br />the desolation of my heart. <br /> <br />From the earth to the empyrean <br />from the sky to placelessness - <br />Only He knows the expanse of the hearts universe. <br /> <br />The stories of beauty of love <br />Whatever there is in the world, is the storyof our love. <br /> <br />With the very first thought of the Beloved <br />I was lost to the world <br />If this be the beginning what <br />would be its finale. <br /> <br />Once have I heard Sufis say in their retreats <br />These colourful words, Bedam, these soulful verses, <br />ends here.<br /><br />Bedam Shah Warsi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/only-god-knows-4/
