You'Re the Light

Being in love with you makes every morning worth getting up for I hover over your feedback in an uncertain emotion each time you give NO. Your name is now a sweet I have been using it to answer questions without a notice in an unexpected way Early in the morning your thought comes first wishing I could ear your voice Along the street I walk blindly because only your pic I see which my eyes had been captured In amidst of people I stay hush rest my cheek upon my palm playing with you in phantom world At night sleep slip through me because my mind is being choked with a million thoughts only your pic I see Oh my beloved grant my request Let me a room to rest my limb Make me the wave upon your ocean The green leaves of your tree Make me the fish that dwells in your loving sea Which your heart is it origin From the very moment we have met my heart had been given to you it has turned me into a drunkard without a sip of an alcohol It draws my soul into another world where I only see your pic I smile to you from time to time people think I'm insane, but I know I'm in love and sane Make me the roof upon your house and you be the dweller My love for you is like a sea, be the golden boat that function only upon my sea As I know you're the light I'm longing for you my beloved, only the moon can light the dark silhouette of the night.

This piece is very modern. At first I didn't like the modern terms but reading further I was drawn in. And your style became Shakespearean.

Good poem. But could use a little more chiselling.
