1. ..

    How many times ... have I shut the door on questions,

    and turned away a soul, fettered in love for you?

  2.   ..

     

    How many times ... have I extinguished my beacon,

    the one I kindled with hopes of answers left neglected?

  3. What of the longings, what of my tears—my own?

    What of my heart, ablaze with the fire of love’s delirium?

  4.  

    Still you tell my rose of its watering;

    still you offer examples in words.

  5. What have you stored away except those impulses of yours

    that sent fantasies galloping toward the rendezvous?

  6. I have grown weary, while you keep kindling my bewilderment,

    of the humiliation of waiting for you and the ambiguity of the matter.

  7. ( ) ..

    ؟!

    “Do not ask” ... Is that your answer whenever

    you lose the compass on love’s road?!
