How did I go mad?



More familiar than familiar to my eyes;
yet, nothing but a stranger I see!

This image, my own reflection, 
it may be;
this cold smile and this mad gaze, 
they can’t be me?!!

Like a caged bird,

desperately, I fly this way and that;

looking for a way out, a way back home,

out of a hat!



No matter which direction I choose, it seems

This dark circle, forever, my only familiar path!

In the mirror of life, I see but a stranger, angry and sad
Who am I now?
What became of me?
When did I go mad?!!!


اشنا تر از اشنا به چشم من

اما ندانمش این تصویر بیگانه

,این تصویر، تصویر منست اما

نیست از من این لبخند سرد و این نگاه دیوانه

اندر این آینه عمر، من جز یک بیگانه نبینم

کیست این مرد؟ چگونه شد او اینچنین مجنون و دیوانه؟

چون پرنده در اسارت بر چپ و راست میزنم سر

تقلا می‌کنم در جست و جوی راه خانه

,انتخاب من، هر سوی و هر بر

...!مسیر من، این حلقهٔ‌ تاریک، ماند یگانه

I Want to Go!



A withered and trembling hand stops the pendulum of time;
and a voice echoes:
“I want to go!”

I want to go
where there is no past and no future;
where now is yesterday,
and now is tomorrow.

I want to go
where beginnings have no end;
where fear has no meaning.

I am lost in my own skin!
I want to go
where I can be “found” in your heart!

I want to go where a kiss lasts a lifetime.
I want to run through the droplets of rain suspended and motionless midair;
your hand clenched in mine.

I want to go.

Staring at an old crumbled picture of you;
I want to go where a picture frame preserves our togetherness evermore!
I want to go
Where YOU are to be found!!!


A withered and trembling hand stops the pendulum of time;
and a voice echoes:

I want to go…
I want to go…
I want to go!!!

My Sorrow


غم من گسترده تر از اقیانوس

عاقل و دیوانه بودن این غمم کاهش نداد


...من از درون ویرانه ام

!!!من از عاقلی دیوانه ام





My sorrow, vast and deep as the ocean;
and neither sanity nor insanity has helped lessen it by a drop!


I, am a ruin from the inside out…

I am insane, for I am the sanest!!!
