02UndatedPolish the mirror of your heart until it reflects every person's light.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
04UndatedIf I can’t be your love, then let me be a simple brooch so I may rest a while against your chest. If I can’t be your love, then let me be a forgotten coin so I may rest a while against your thigh. If I can’t be your love, then let me be an unlit cigarette so I may rest a while in between your lips. If I can’t be your love, then let me at least remain in these words so I may rest a while in your thoughts.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
05UndatedUsually, when I dream of flying I am simply flapping my arms and somehow I lift off and glide through the sky. Last night was different. I missed you so much and my yearning was so powerful that I sprouted wings like a phoenix and soared to reach you. And now I finally understand: if you see lovers on a roof, do not worry. Surely, love has metamorphosed them.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
06UndatedIs it odd, my love, that I envy others who have not met you for the intoxication they have yet to experience? Is it odd that I wish to witness you with new eyes so I may have the pleasure of falling for you all over again? I am grateful, so grateful, for knowing the meaning of your various sighs. For being the cause of your ecstatic cries. But, if only for a moment, I wish to let you fall out of my hands so that I may catch you again. You, my love, are the oddity. You are my exception.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
07UndatedI will drive the world crazywith love poems for you.So they can know how magnificent you areand how crazy I am.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
08UndatedBabies cry at birth because it is the first time they experience separation from love.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
09UndatedThey can award me with the greatest accolades and reward me with the finest diamonds. They can name days and streets after me, canonise and celebrate me. They can make me the queen of their kingdom, the president of their nation. They can carry my picture in their wallets and whisper my name in their prayers but, tell me, what is all this worth if your voice isn’t the one calling me home?Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
10UndatedNothing belongs to itself anymore. These trees are yours because you once looked at them. These streets are yours because you once traversed them. These coffee shops and bookshops, these cafés and bars, their sole owner is you. They gave themselves so willingly, surrendering to your perfume. You sang with the birds and they stopped to listen to you. You smiled at the sheepish stars and they fell into your hair. The sun and moon, the sea and mountain, they have all left from heartbreak. Nothing belongs to itself anymore. You once spoke to Him, and then God became yours. He sits with us in darkness now to plot how to make you ours.” K.K.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
12UndatedPut down your glass, it is time to dance. If you want to get drunk all you need is to drink love. Put down your pipe and do away with these childish toys. If you want to get high all you need is to breathe love. Now, can I have this dance?Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
13UndatedWe call a story about love a love story. We call a poem about love a love poem. Well then, my dear, aren’t our lives love lives?Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
14UndatedBe like the sun who fell in love with the moon and shared all his light.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
16UndatedLike a child who saves their favourite food on the plate for last, I try to save all thoughts of you for the end of the day so I can dream with the taste of you on my tongue.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
18UndatedThe only thing that comes close to defining me correctly is my love.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
19UndatedIf love weighs you downand casts a shadow on your lifethen it isn’t love.Love is light and makes you light.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
20UndatedBeing deeply, passionately, and intensely in love is being deeply, passionately, and intensely in life.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
22UndatedI was mistaken when I said you live in my heart. How absurd I was when you live in my fingertips so that everything I touch is you. How foolish I was when you live in my toes so that everywhere I go there's you. How senseless of me to say you live in my heart when you breathe in my lungs, walk on my mind, and drink in my mouth. I came to pen another poem for you, but even every unwritten poem is you.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
23UndatedI write because the security of your love allows me to develop my craft without concerning myself with trivialities — as if your love could be any more complete. But I write, in the first place,because of you, my muse. I write for your green eyes to glance at my humble words and for the pleasure of hearing you utter them.Kamand Kojouri / quote ↗
