There on the other side of the world
when you fall asleep
here I’m waiting
moment by moment
for a dawn
that begins in your hands
with the simple words:
Hi my love! Good night

تو در آنسوی جهان
وقتی که به خواب میروی
من اینسو
لحظهبهلحظه
منتظرِ طلوعیام
که از دستان تو آغاز میشود!
با نوشتنِ:
سلام عزیزم! شبت بخیر
میا💛

I can’t tell if the rain arrives when I’m sad or if it draws these feelings out of me, either way I always return to this poem I once wrote, as if the rain understands these feelings before I do…
I didn’t sleep well last night.
I shed a thousand tears,
mourning an idea
that could have been.
And when I awoke
it was pouring rain,
as if the heavens
were crying with me.
The raindrops traced the glass,
just as my tears had traced my skin.
But the earth did not resist.
It drank the sorrow,
absorbing loss,
Turning grief into something new.
I stood beneath the storm,
let the water wash over me
until I could no longer tell
where my tears ended
And the rain began.
The sky softened,
gray giving way to gold.
The air, still heavy,
but no longer crushing.
The earth, still wet,
but ready to bloom.
And I,
still standing,
but no longer the same.

In quiet corners of the mind,
Dreams wander free,
Chasing starlight endlessly.

There are nights
when the eyes are tired
but the heart
is more awake than ever
And morning
seems
to have lost its way

I just created Gamify Writing using @titles. Mint:
The prompt was my haiku:
Writing is a chore.
And chores were never v. fun -
So gamify it.

There are only three moments of true joy.
Birth
When consciousness enters form
before memory, before fear, before self.
Death
When form dissolves
and the illusion of separation ends
returning to the infinite.
And art
True art!
When the self disappears
and something eternal moves through us.
Everything else we call joy
is attachment, relief, or desire.
Echoes of the past.
Anticipation of the future.
But true joy exists
only where time collapses
and the self is no longer in the way.

There is a volcano inside me
Sleeping
And when it gets dark
When I think of you
It erupts
I burn 🥀🖤

🥺🎧
Who are you
that I can trust you like this
and speak my own name to you
place the key to my home
in your hands
share the bread of my happiness with you
sit beside you and
on your knee
fall asleep
this calmly
Who are you
that I truly
linger with you
in the land of my dreams
“Ahmad Shamlou”
