Memories

I'm looking at you
I color your tousled white hair,  in gold,
 -in my memory -
 your golden larait
which pulls me into childhood
that on one side;
brings me to the stories
to the crows
and on the other side;
puts me by the Caspian coast
I'm looking at you
and probe your forehead lines
counting them takes me,
 many  years away;
One ; makes me laugh
the other ; makes me cry
I'm looking at you
why i don't know you!!
wrinkles around your eyes
are worth-hearing
one ; puts me to the battle of
deaths and sorrows
the other; pulls me to the days and memories of love sonnets
I'm looking at you
why you don't know me!!
your two laughter-lines
are two deep eyeful valleys
that on one side;
takes me to the sweet
maternal period
and on the other side;
reminds me of my childhood,
sisterhood,partnership
I'm looking at you
and release you of myself
- in the mirror -
your sleeping inner-child;
wakes me up
your mature;
carries me to the heaven ,
and thrills me
amidst my tears
amidst your laughter
 - in the mirror -
i'm looking at you
you are looking at me
and however
why i don't know you!
why you don't know me!
