longing for longing

When I’m not writing poems,
I long to write poems.

Only those who know longing 
truly know longing.
(Perhaps also the land where the lemon trees bloom)

Make sure you always feel longing
(a Sufi mystic)
Enlightenment? I wanted certainty. 

Now I have longing. 
And poems. Every now and then: a light.
