    “Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not
    understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded.
    But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and
    recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before
    you and how fabulous you really looked….You’re not as fat as you
    imagine. Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as
    effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing
    bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that
    never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm
    on some idle Tuesday. Do one thing everyday that scares you Sing Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with
    people who are reckless with yours. Floss Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes
    you’re behind…the race is long, and in the end, it’s only with
    yourself. Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you
    succeed in doing this, tell me how. Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements. Stretch Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your
    life…the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they
    wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year
    olds I know still don’t. Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone. Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children,maybe
    you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky
    chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary…what ever you do, don’t
    congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either – your
    choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. Enjoy your body,
    use it every way you can…don’t be afraid of it, or what other people
    think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever
    own.. Dance…even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room. Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them. Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly. Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for
    good. Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the
    people most likely to stick with you in the future. Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you
    should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and
    lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you
    knew when you were young.”

    Curtis Tyrone Jones
    “Cloaked in the most valuable invisibilities, she’s a seamstress wearing knitted concepts of genius fitted like the elegant dress of a dazzling princess. Yet, no matter how lofty, the messages of her precious lips always land softly with her ability to keep kissing me with the sweetest simplicities.”
    Curtis Tyrone Jones

    Saiber
    “When did you first fall in love?"

    "I think, I first fell in love
    when I was in fifth grade
    with this boy who kept his glass ruler in the sunlight
    and made rainbows on my desk with it.”
    Saiber, Stardust and Sheets

    “THE WEATHER OF LOVE


    Love
    Has a way of wilting
    Or blossoming
    At the strangest,
    Most unpredictable hour.
    This is how love is,
    An uncontrollable beast
    In the form of a flower.
    The sun does not always shine on it.
    Nor does the rain always pour on it
    Nor should it always get beaten by a storm.
    Love does not always emit the sweetest scents,
    And sometimes it can sting with its thorns.
    Water it.
    Give it plenty of sunlight.
    Nurture it,
    And the flower of love will
    Outlive you.
    Neglect it or keep dissecting it,
    And its petals will quickly curl up and die.
    This is how love is,
    Perfection is a delusional vision.
    So love the person who loves you
    Unconditionally,
    And abandon the one
    Who only loves you
    Under favorable
    Conditions.”
    Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

    Kamand Kojouri
    “For me,
    you are fresh water
    that falls from trees
    when it has stopped raining. For me,
    you are cinnamon that lingers
    on the tongue and gives
    bitter words
    sweetening.
    For me, you are the scent of
    violins and vision
    of valleys
    smiling.
    And still,
    for me, your loveliness never ends.
    It traverses
    the world
    and finds its
    way back to me.
    Only
    me.”
    Kamand Kojouri

    “A sky
    full
    of stars
    and he
    was staring
    at her.

    —ATTICUS”
    Atticus Poetry, Love Her Wild

    Kamand Kojouri
    “I open my eyes.
    I want to know:
    what is in the abyss of a kiss?
    Are stars born in these black caves
    that house bated breaths and unspoken words?
    Do our souls crawl on these tender cheeks
    to greet one another by ivory gates?
    What happens when we kiss?
    Where do you go?
    Don’t tell me.
    For I have lost my desire to know.
    Kiss me
    so that I forget myself.
    I close my eyes
    and fall in the abyss.”
    Kamand Kojouri

    Kamand Kojouri
    “Here's another poem,
    like all others before and after,
    dedicated to you.
    There isn't anything left to be said
    but I will spend my life
    trying to put you into words.
    You who is every goodness,
    every optimism
    and hope.
    Your love is a better fate for me
    than anything I could wish for.
    If you are a part of me,
    then you’re the best part.
    And if you're separate from me,
    then you are my destination.
    But I’ve become a weary traveller,
    so please,
    let us never be apart.”
    Kamand Kojouri

    “Think the tree that bears nutrition:
    though the fruits are picked,
    the plant maintains fruition.
    So give all the love you have.
    Do not hold any in reserve.
    What is given is not lost; it shall return.”
    Kamand Kojouri

    Jacqueline Simon Gunn
    “I loved being near you. Even though I felt that bubble you had around you, even though I never quite knew what you were thinking, damn, did I love being near you. Somehow, I knew you would rip me apart and drown me. Somehow, I knew we wouldn’t last. It didn’t matter. You were my sun. I loved feeling you upon me, around me, between me. Even though you could only love me from a distance, I didn’t care. I never felt more warmth inside of me than when you were against me.”
    Jacqueline Simon Gunn

    Sakshi Narula
    “I didn't love like the women who swiped left and right from one heartbreak to another. I couldn't just trade some skin for scraps of attention from men who would never use a Swiss knife to declare their love for me, by scraping my initials on the bark of an old oak tree or promise me a forever with a lovelock on Ponte Des Arts. I needed a Romeo. I deserved a Shakespeare in love. I deserved a man who had birds flying out of his ribcage every time he saw me smile.”
    Sakshi Narula, Lover
