Added this week's poem. I wrote this one entirely in one go as usual, as Muse encourages me to do that. I sometimes worry that they might be too half-hearted if I don't feel that they express my heart, but at the same time, aren't they honest?

that's honestly so impressive! your choice of words and structure feel very carefully thought-out, I really like how it flows!

Added muse entry this morning. I have not touched poetry in a while but this prompt was great. I suppose the muse will get me back into the writing flow.

After re-reading it, I figured ghazl sounds better in Arabic due to the motion of its vowels and lack thereof, but English may still have a chance if the rhyme scheme was just right.

I suppose we can also honor the OG's. This is one of the most important poets in the Middle East https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine/poems/144612/where-did-the-handsome-beloved-go
