“It is not nothing that it’s the loveliest night of the year I hear a melody from my balcony —elsewhere life is exploding becoming stars but all that is lost on me I am here trying not to name this How can I not say that for me there is not enough of you I invent you numerous times a day practice not saying the words as you laugh lawlessly and hold me in your solid livingness yet each time I fall forever like a leaf It’s become so hard I blurted the words in a goodbye to your dog It’s the loveliest night of the year as I practice unspeaking how to not say there was whatever that came before and then a life of possibility” — Kamand Kojouri
It is not nothing
that it’s the loveliest night of the year
I hear a melody from my balcony
—elsewhere life is exploding
becoming stars
but all that is lost on me
I am here trying not to name this
How can I not say
that for me
there is not enough of you
I invent you
numerous times a day
practice not saying the words
as you laugh lawlessly
and hold me in your solid livingness
yet each time I fall
forever like a leaf
It’s become so hard
I blurted the words
in a goodbye to your dog
It’s the loveliest night of the year
as I practice unspeaking
how to not say there was
whatever that came before
and then a life of possibility
