Perturbed Not, I Am Fine

This hymn which is achingly beautiful, 
reminds me of you. 
Indication of love and it reminds me of you. 
It's been quite long, 
and exhausted I am, of camouflaging my feelings for you. 
Never realized when I slipped in love with you. 
Perturbed I am not, 
I am fine. 
This heart now a lunatic, 
slowly slipping down to the oblivion. 
Evocative thoughts of your scent, 
swells up my eyes with tears. 
Perturbed I am not, 
I am fine, 
resonance of your voice still lingers in my ears. 
Evening's I ignite the lamps around your scented memory, 
eyelids turn moist which once used to drench, 
thinking of you. 
Mutilated I am, 
just left to be scattered away. 
With few debris of your feel, 
that still remains to quit. 
Perturbed I am not, 
I am fine.
