He pens pretty poetry on a paper pad
hoping the mistakes he made would fade,
He counts each and every syllable to be safe
but the metaphors don't speak the fact.
He pens pretty poetry on a paper pad
to display the heartbeats and darker shades
of living the days of replayed heartbreak
just so that he could bury hurt in sand.

His right hand writes away the tears
the years have made him grown bitter;
he shrivels as the roses start to wither
and poems become scribbled cries no one hears.
He ends tear-stained poems before it gets torn
with last words that read loving you was war.
You are my moonlight,
the darker that my life gets,
the brighter you shine.
She guessed she was, just one of his "girls"
He thought he'd Delight her, with a few of his twirls
But he didn't notice, while the others wore pink
She was dressed in black, having a drink
Nothing like them, insane, her middle name
She didn't just dance circles, she played the game
She'll burn your house down, while you sleep
So pray the Lord, your soul to keep
And should you die, before you wake
Anything worth a ****, she will take
She'll lock it up deep, in her trophy chest
Placing your things, with all the rest
And She won't do it, in an arena
She's a 'burn your house down', ballerina
Dancing in ashes
That's her fashion
Her Pointe slippers, tainted black
Not rhythm but Empathy, she lacks
Never involve yourself, in a crazy dance
Or Being burned alive, is a definite chance
It's just her nature, who she is
She'll drink your coke, but she won't **** with fizz
My quilt is
Of four corners
Into  the world
To build up
A
Ruined
Heart
It
I s
Far
Better
Than
Raising
A palace
positive

One small
Positive thought
In the morning
Can change
Your whole day
Light and shadow
Are the dance
Of life

Dear Izabel
خوش حال ام
که نوشتی
در کلیسای ما
خرقه ها عنابی ست
ترس و تکفیر میان ما نیست
کاتولیک ها خوب اند
حرف از هر اعدام ... سنگسار و شلاق
مطلقن ممنوع است
و تعجب کردی
من نوشتم
- اینجا
در میان اتوبوس دیوارست
پدرم در یک سو
مادرم در آنسوست ....
The beauty
You
See
At
I
Is
A reflection
Of
You
To
Me
......
Yet
And
Yet
If I Were God: The Writings of Forough Farokhzad

به جستجوی تو
به درگاه کوه می گریم
درآستانه ی دریاو علف
به جستجوی تو
در معبر بادها می گریم
در چار راه فصول
در  چار چوب شکسته ی پنجره ای
که آسمان ابر آلوده را
قابی  کهنه می گیرد
به انتظار تصویر تو
این دفتر خالی
تا چند
ورق خواهد خورد
جریان باد را پذیرفتن
و عشق را
که خواهر مرگ است
و جاوداتگی
رازش را
با تو در میان نهاد
پس به هیئت گنجی در آمدی
بایسته و آز انگیز
گنجی از آن دست
که تملک خاک را و دیاران را
از این سان
دلپذیر کرده است
و ما همچنان
دوره می کنیم
شب را
و روز  را
هنوز را
