Who Am I

I'm emotional
To you all my likings
One of the insane character

In the scriptures of love, I am ignorant
In the comprehension of love, I am a constant failure learner

Your affectionate smile, your shy look,
The obscure ripples of the lips pair
Kills me over and over again
At the center of this fascinated emotion

When I look back at the moonlight
It illuminates the world with your beauty

In the words of the morning hymn,
in the verse of the song, in the stanza of the poem
Hither, thither, everywhere I find your name

of the blooming flowers in the garden
In every petal, I get your engraved name

The alphabet of all the languages of the world
Just write your name in my heart

I am insane in you, I am the Farhad of that Shirin
Forgetting himself who was only mad at Shirin

I can only see wherever I look
A reflection of your precious mysterious colors

I- not anymore myself
Tell me, who am I?

Nicely spoken romance! Especially liked the 5th stanza. (old English is my inspiration too)
