“my days in love
are filled with the universe
the stars are unified
to resemble our union
a bond even love cannot undo
my days in love
reverse time
while moving it forward
making it slow for a while
helping me catch my breath”
― Prudee M, The 1st Diary POEMS

“To see you is to forget my name.
To forget this tight collar
and that delayed train.
To forget the conflict with the landlady
and the worry that my students won’t like me.
These trifles lose themselves
in the valleys of your brows
and the seas of your hair.

To see you is to forget my name.
To forget if it matters what I do
and whether what I do matters.
To forget who I think I am
and who I think I ought to become.
To forget every past moment
and unremember
every moment to come.

To see you is to forget my name.
To forget myself
and forget the world.
These trivialities drown themselves
in the dark eyes that stare back at me.
Because to see you is to see
you.
Only you.”
― Kamand Kojouri
