Cacoethes
Oh what a fool I've been
I read only face
And nothing more
What you say
You don't and then
You drift away from us
Into the interests you've never had
Urges to feel your lips
Were all burnt alive
I've not yet found any love 
Really not
Though you asked me 
To find one fine girl
And uncountable dreams
Even after a lot many mistakes
You don't get the difference
Between needs and wants
Do I want, what I need?
Do I need, what I want?
Mind keeps drowning me down
Mind keeps drowning me down
You warm me 
Seldom 
You warn me
Often
You love my body like hell
And he loves my soul like heaven
Sticking my ear onto your bare chest
I could taste the sweetness
Of lemongrass 
I had it sometimes
I had it enough few times
The king of the gods
I've been waiting for you
Here in the garden of words and pains
Wait a minute oh lord
My friend is now
In need of mine and that's fine
Removing the shirt and skin you wear
Before your friends and foes
I feel the places within you
Some dank, some dazzling 
Some derelict universes 
Lovers rather wouldn't explore 
Never it had been 
For ten minutes and a more
Only deafening silence crescendoes
In between needs and wants
Between love and regret
I texted you 'adieu'
And wrote 'we're mysteries'
You better hushed me up
And kept hobbling back home
My season monsoon
I try hard to listen 
To what your heart really 
Tries to say
Silencing your inhibitions
And fear of dying alone
I've never hugged any tree
But have been 
A tree hugger ever since then.

Stars watch my soul
They shine brighter
For my every battle won
They rain valour lights in agony
For misery of my heart
They worship the moon
For my health
For every sacrifice
They shed onehalf of Their wealth
When I see the curtain of night
Falling on the once bright sky
I take it as my call
As they are none less
than fierce women
with long forgotten
yet burning pall
When I see the curtain of night
Feeding on the dim lit sky
I take it as my call
For my atoms belong with them
And they shall guide me
Till I halt
-S.

I always belonged
To this time
Composed of
Everlasting moments
Of monotony
But never
To this space
Gory and ruthless
You can
Either sing or scream
To mark your presence
In this lonesome galaxy
But who cares
For you?
At the end of it all
After the sun sets
Noboy stays, I crawl
Life on this earth
Is unbelievably diverse
And stranger than fiction
And if this is false
Where should I move?
Beneath my apparel
Can't be hidden
My beauty and soul
If these aren't really scattered
Throughout the neighborhood
And beyond the horizon
Where the neons flicker
And blue
I still believe
I'm not lost in the crowd
And still as real
In your thoughts and heart
and dreams
As I'm here
Writing out my heart
For me and you
For us, I could die
Well in advance
But I beg
Don't you push me
Beyond the limits
Of my comfort
Beyond the zone
Of your faded presence
Help me fall asleep
My lost dear
Just keep singing old blues
Even if no one
Is witnessing
What I've been going through
How I've been bleeding inside
Over the years
My poetries are
Capturing this
Great depression
Frame to frame
Pain to pain
And those who are
In love
Say that it's a joke
You know what
The disease of mind
Isn't so cheap to treat
Like fevers and cough
And the fears
Of what mother would say
How she would react
Are there too

The Love Within (A Poem by Reza Ghahremanzadeh)
You ventured into a dangerous world,
Convinced a piece was missing,
Rom-coms were your favourite thing––
The love, the hugs, the kissing.
Near and far, you searched and searched,
You drove yourself insane,
Clinging to an untrue thought:
A man will fix my pain.
And when you said you needed him,
I told you you were wrong,
The love you craved was there inside,
You had it all along.

Nobody exists on purpose,
Nobody belongs anywhere,
Then why am I here?
With a stomach that won’t stop rolling,
A mind that won’t stop thinking impossible things,
With an impenetrable umbra seeping into every corner of my mind,
It’s hard because I know that there is a sea of happiness somewhere over that impossible rainbow that you built but dark clouds of apathy have canvased my once beautiful mind leaving it a blank abyss.
And why should I feel this way?
Why should I be jealous of other peoples happiness,
Why must I hide from my mind - I’m constantly busy, not busy as in the way you think.
Busy taking deeper breaths,
Busy silencing irrational thoughts,
Busy calming my racing heart,
Busy telling myself I am OK,
I live in the greatest time of humanity where the world- everything that is, was, and may ever be is at the tip of my fingers, a simple button push away.
Yet here I am struggling with my own mediocrity and living in a body those battles to survive and a mind that wants to die.
And the greatest struggle is a question,
A single question that burns at the back of my mind lighting up my own self-hatred…
WHY ME?!!

You are my only weakness,
I'm not afraid of the dark, I was born it
I've never been afraid of my demons, they rest and lay wait in the furnace of my heart
Wanting to be released to unleash the chaos, confusion and disorder within
caged in my mind is the fog of war
Peace has escaped my soul for so long
I crave the silence that is never forthcoming
In your mind is where I will rest

My eyes overflow.
Each falling tear marks its path on my cheek.
Each drop hangs on my jaw,
Growing slowly,
Swaying tantalizingly from side to side before falling into nothingness,
Abandoning me as you have too…
