When some one falls in love

by Rakebul Robin   Jun 6, 2007


The short nights grow long...
Sitting like this, sleep escapes you.
In the heart, restlessness, and in the eyes, longing,
when someone falls in love with someone.
I'm in a state akin to insanity.
Don't ask me what my desires are.
I've taken hold of your arms..
in these arms is my heaven.
Like a flower, this heart has bloomed and grown fragrant.
Touching you, this heart has become unsteady.
What is it about a heart that makes it yearn at every moment,
when someone falls in love with someone?
The short nights grow long.
This heart becomes a bird and soars
when I meet the object of my dreams.
Dreams are just dreams;
this is true. When do you become mine?
Even when awake, the eyes continue to behold dreams,
when it seems to a heart that someone is its own.
One has neither control over his heart, nor power over himself,
when he falls in love with someone.
The short nights grow long...
Sitting like this, you lose sleep,
restlessness in your heart, longing in your eyes,
when someone falls in love with someone.
