Kamand Kojouri Poems

I haven't written you a poem in years it seems.
How can it be my fault
when the words to describe you have not yet been created?
When the alphabet lacks the very letters?
...

Missing you,
I missed a part of me
I shared with you
that's now gone.
...

Even when I write about this swan
and that orchid,
I write about you.
Every word
...

What is this love
that makes me see beauty,
and makes every beautiful thing
bring you back to me?
...

Everything I have become,
everything I will ever accomplish
cannot compare to my most
impressive feat:
...

They took my books
because my message was love.
They took my pen
because my words were love.
...

Happiness, do not leave me.
I know you, a capricious monarch
perching on the fortunate flowers you see.
Hear me:
...

Can we share my eyes
so you can see what I see?
Can we share my ears
so you can hear what I hear?
...

If you ask all the cells
in my body,
they only answer your name.
Follicles push the hair upwards
...

Come back to me.
Where have you gone?
And why so long?
I miss the star below your lip,
...
