A man in love is like one near a bright light
He can only see what the light illuminates
What he can’t see is the part covered by darkness
Sometimes light’s brightness blinds you
You can only see what the light wants you to see
Only those away from the light see clearly
A man in love is like a drunk man
He can’t see clearly
Neither can he walk steadily
He speaks louder than is necessary
But he can’t tell the difference
Only those who are sober can tell the difference
A man in love is like a fly trapped in a jar of rotten fish
It feels happy in every way
It never sees the reason for getting out
It has food, shelter and a breeding place
But its not aware that its trapped
And will never know freedom
Such is a man in love
He uses love to justify all the silly things he does
He puts himself last and his woman first
Everything she does is right
She is the most beautiful of them all
No one can match her in anyway whatsoever
Only the observers know the truth
For those who believe and are in the mask of disbelief in love, the poem tries to explain the truth 'Freedom and love are not mutual destructors. Love honors freedom and freedom loves love more!
This is true, but following your heart is the way to go. The obsevers are also trapped in their own jars of rotten fish wishing they are in your jar. Nicely written

I would like to translate this poem
Love and freedom are never contradictory but improve upon hand in hand.Mutual belief makes them to feel less free when love beacons pleasing the love. poem runs very neatly like a stream. well done dear friend.
