Your love has filled me
with a madness
no one could ever know.
Your gaze has enchanted my heart
with a poem
no one could ever write.
Version by Jonathan Star and Shahram Shiva
A Garden Beyond Paradise
Bantam Books, 1992
One day
You will take my heart completely
and make it more fiery than
a dragon.
Your eyelashes will write on my heart
the poem
that could never come from the pen
of a poet.
