The Eternal Dance: Love Poetry and Prose, Paperback

Simple yet stunning love poems by Kamand, the young writer who has captured the hearts and minds of thousands all over social media.
Inspired by the great Mystic poets of the East and the great Romantic poets of the West, The Eternal Dance is a collection of poetry and prose that explores the seven different states of love: Attraction and Infatuation, Devotion and Obsession, Heartbreak, Enchantment, Love, Understanding, and Unity.

"I have given it much thought.
There seems to be
only one explanation
for why we are here.
Why our souls choose
to incarnate as mortals
only to suffer for a hundred years
over and over again.
I now understand
we were once angels
who chose to manifest as humans
in order to experience the imperfect
and tempestuous human love.
So you see, if angels couldn't refuse love
then who am I to refuse you?
And so, I yield.
I surrender to this.
Our eternal dance."
