Overview

Amapola is a collection of poems written during the second half of 2025 while the author was working as a documentary cinematographer in New York, Bolivia, and Argentina. Written at the age of twenty-three, these texts trace the contours of a love that existed without definition: tender yet uncertain, lived within the faintly drawn boundaries between intimacy and disappearance. With clear and unadorned language, the Peruvian filmmaker and poet Samir Mayhua captures the lingering weight of an unresolved connection: the stubborn faith in someone's return, the silent rituals of waiting, and the slow acceptance that arrives when a story ends before it ever fully began. Amapola is a portrait of devotion suspended in ambiguity, of memory surviving presence, and of the grief that remains when love escapes beyond our reach. These poems speak to those who have loved within that in-between territory, clinging to something that never fully belonged to them, yet proves impossible to forget.
