My Brother My Love







Leave the tears for last
for now all I need is
solace or silence
No need for profundity
You can sit by me 
In unity 
against this grave peril
Wa can pretend 
We’re having coffee on my porch 
Talking about politics 
Or cars
Let’s forget for a moment 
These are vailed goodbyes 
Let’s reminisce 
About our childhood 
That seems so long ago 
It may have been 
A myth 
Remind me that once 
We were young and brave 
Care free,  generous
Let’s not talk about regrets 
There may be too many 
Don't make waiting 
More unpleasant 
By forced cheer 
Hold my hand
So I can feel your love 
For all that matters now 
Is love.

Don't Ask

Don't ask me how I am   Don't ask how I'm doing   Don't bother asking how I feel   I am raw with emotion It hurts too much, it hurts to feel, to think  Asking is like picking at my wounds Making blood flow like my tears   I am one soul living two lives   Feeling for two, hurting for two   Going mad.

          My city,  You have filled my heart with longing for the future,   and tears of sadness in my eyes.  Goodbye my city,  Goodbye earthen walls,  In  you I found the joys of belonging.  I still remember the damp smell of your alleys and  And the sound of the black crows.  The shadows of your twilights have fallen on my future,  And your sunrises are in my heart.  Goodbye my city,  Goodbye my childhood. Armineh Amirian Zohrabian 1972 Arak, Iran.

Mom

I miss you mom. It's been too long  You don't even come to my dreams. Were you simply too tired? Are you happy now that you are gone? I want to remember you happy With your blue eyes smiling like when I came to visit When you had bought something pretty. Did I tell you that I loved you, enough? I hope you are with dad Is he making you laugh? Hope to see you again mom. I hope to see you again.
