Misconception of Love

I lost myself, every moment,
But nobody cared for me.
What was my crime?
If my eyes matched to someone.
My love defended me
And wept through out the way.

Whom I shall blame to?
My heart was hurt,
She promised me and denied,
That was only a reason.
The community scratched my body,
I lost the sense for my living.

Unknown were unknown to me,
Who shall I blamed to?
She was known to me,
Who shall I blamed she as unknown?
My pain hasn’t this reward.
I stop to care for her.
She was my aim for living.

Her beauty was only a beauty,
That was my weakness,
I lost myself,
And everyone targeted only me,
I never got a sound sleep,
I dreamed her in sunshine.

I burnt myself in pain,
And roasted my ashes,
I examined always me,
And cared for my shies.
Is it a different matter of customs?
Tombs have much respect than a living.

Love has only respect, 
Is a community unknown for that?
Someone is dying for his choice,
And we criticized him,
He is not capable to gain it.
Life is a matter for living,
But barriers never let us to live.
