Who are you
and
Who am I?

Why am I awake
In the middle of the night
Thinking of you?
Craving for you?
What are you to me?

Why do this heart of mine
Jostle when I look at you
Igniting my senses
Even with floating conversation?
Who are you to me?

Why do I have this feeling
That I have known you
from somewhere long before
In another place; another time?
What were you to me?

Why is my heart telling me
That you are mine though
I know you are taken
and you belong with someone else?
Who are you to me?

Why is that when things are wrong
ethically, morally and socially-
This mysterious force keeps
Pushing me towards you?
What are you to me?

How can this be when
Religiously, culturally and sensibly
I know this to be so outrageous?
So immensely out of proportion?
Who are you to me?

Have I been infested with an ailment?
When did this happen to me?
what is the remedy?
What do I do?
What are you to me?

Are you thinking
“She is probably infatuated with me? ”
Well! Are you aware that I am a grown woman
Who has probably lost herself in a daze?
Who are you to me?

Who am I
and
who are You?
