INSANE IN LOVE

INSANE IN LOVE


I did not know what is love,
Till the time I met you.
Lovely though meeting you was,
Now that meeting I rue.

From that day my sleep is gone,
My heart is beating fast.
It’s you I see everywhere,
On me a spell you’ve cast.

What’s a day dream, what’s dreaming,
So far this I knew not.
Now that’s what I do all day
In your thoughts I am caught.

For where is my life destined?
I don’t know where I go.
Turning back from love path is
Now impossible so.

What is love, what is to love
I was not yet aware
But now that I am smitten
I think it is but fair

To ask you simply but this:
For me have you a thought?
Or, is it that I alone
Am so insane, distraught?
