wish this wasn’t a wish كاش اين كاش نبود

i wish all deaths were normal or that they were from an illness no animal was hunted by a human no human was hunted by a human i wish there was no prayer against a human it did not matter who or where your god is it did not matter if your pilgrimage is here or there i wish there was no holy place i wish the holiest place for every human being was earth and peace of human being كاش تمام مرگ ها طبيعى بود يا كه حتى از بيمارى بود نه حيوانى شكار مى شد به دستِ انسان نه انسانى شكار

a familiar unfamiliar یک بیگانه آشنا

my god is different from your god my halal is different from your haram but my mind is full of humanity and my heart full of kindness i grew up in a city where you it’s guardian i’m familiar with cardamom and mohammadi flower food offering also my preference i too wanted to be the guardian of my alley one day but your bitter language drove me out the city reason your mind is full of god and my mind full of humanity خدايم با خدايت فرق دارد حلالم با حرامت اما فكرم پر از انسانيت

sleeping beauty زيباى خفته

from the beginning, i was who i appeared and i appeared as i was but you you took my kindness for granted and mocked my beauty you called me a whore and laughed at my name now, day and night your voice wants me to be از ابتدا آن بودم كه نشان دادم و نشان دادم آن كه بودم اما تو خوش رويى ام را به سادگى ام گرفتى و زيبايى ام را به تمسخر مرا جنده خطاب كردى و به فاميلى ام خنديدى حال شب و روز صدايت شده كه من باشم #poetryblog #weeklypoetry #poetoftheweek #contemporarypoem #contemporar

numbness بی حسی

made a hole in my heart ‏there’s no place for repair ‏i fell in love unconditionally ‏my love is no longer without end ‏without excuse, without sound ‏i listened to his words, why ‏for a reason i’m deaf to unstable sounds در قلبم حفره اى ايجاد كرد جايى دگر براى ترميم نيست عشق ورزيدم به او بى حد و مرز عشقم ديگر بى مرز نيست بى بهانه بى صدا گوش دادم به حرف هايش، چرا چون كه ديگر كر شدم از حرف هاى بى ثبات #poetryblog #weeklypoetry #poetoftheweek #contemporarypoem #contemporarypoet

life زندگى

a tiger was laying in the corner of the room i put my hands in the shelter of your hands to touch it’s inner savage with you ببرى گوشه اتاق لميده بود دستانم را به پناه دستان تو دادم تا كه وحشى درونش را با تو لمس كنم #poetryblog #weeklypoetry #poetoftheweek #contemporarypoem #contemporarypoetry #farsipoem #englishpoem #persianpoet #iranianpoet #americanpoet #bilingualpoetry #foreignpoetry #internationalpoet #internationalpoem #poemsaboutlife #poemsaboutlifeexperiences

my piece مهره من

life is a game of pieces my piece is looking for a place a place in this plain of no end a place in this plain of no beginning my piece patiently, firmly my piece is looking for a start my piece is looking for a familiar face زندگى بازى مهره هاست مهره من به دنبال يك جايگاه ست جایگاهی در اين دشت بى انتها جایگاهی در اين دشت بى ابتدا مهره من صبورانه با استوار مهره من به دنبال يك ابتداست مهره من به دنبال يك چهره ى آشناست #poetryblog #weeklypoetry #poetoftheweek #contemporarypoem
