The Moon has set

You, too, have left…
Your eyes,
Your half an hour long words.
Leaving nothing behind…
A quiet waltz in the evening…
Like the usual dance of the birds
and of their false friends, the hunters…
The moon has set,
You, too, have left…
Your eyes, winking towards loneliness,
are of a silent and blurry green
The night can be deceitful…
For now, the whole city is in pitch black…
 

Sun is up
and
you’re gone.
You will not see the light!
I will be in worse sorrow than
the irresolute desert heat in your eyes.
I don’t want to utter a word now.
Sun is rising
and you are leaving
Alas, does my heart not ask why!
No consolation to be found in the smiles
of the coy night sky.
Though your being has turned into a mist
smoking my very existence,
you, as beknown, have set into the darkness of the moon!

In the very same room

behind the doors

are my longing and your Photo

a pot of flower is my freedom

and sweaty loneliness…

My night confessions have a desert face….

the letter I wrote

is on its way to you…

You

cannot come back to me…

You are the one

who left on a Sunday night in July…

Even if I called hesitant

you would turn your eyes away

to the rose gardens of every color

but crimson…

Yet, you

do not love

anything but red roses….

(Translated by Selin Ozgen)

Once upon a time 

Who knows wherever

Kids weren’t into games

And the big guys weren’t in love

Our nights were dark

Days were even darker

You wouldn’t know that

Chocolate ice cream was this much tasty

Cause you and I,

We were never truly loved…

And the time was always stable___

I met you in between two springs

We kissed___the Sun shined

                   Time is flying

                   Kids are happy

                   Ice-cream is delicious…

Cause we fell in love…

I love you!

If you cry

you will cry

I’ll drink up your tears…

If forgotten sense is passion

then it is love

it’s only plentiful

and about to die…

Here is the dusk

now it is a night

inside are breathless lullabys

if you get bored

you may miss me…

Where do your eyes flow to

and to whom?

Your reflection comes

and reality goes through my dreams

I am thirsty for you

fell into you

alas, I’m mistaken

in this summer midafternoon

female dogs are making out in rush

the table is being set up

white cheese and melon

its scent only goes with RakiArtist Elise Tomlinson

you cry

I drink your tears…

Without thee

it’s an endless hole

hope is lovers’ joy

if you want to, you love

if you don’t, you leave

deeply you sigh

your cheeks get wet

the tears behind your ears

are quite salty…

From now on

you tell me

I listen to

you absolutely cry

I drink your tears…

June

To Love, who has never really left… 

05:40L

Early for a day
Late for a kiss from you

This frozen bed, after you left
Our house, silent as a scream
Dirty plates, we first cooked
Two empty champaigne glasses
Your tshirt you gave me
Your scent on me
Our scent of love everywhere…
This house is talking to me… 

06:45L

Remember the bathroom
The mirror is still playing the last scene
It feels like you’ve never left
I hear your laughters
I sense you on the couch
Your footsteps coming closer
Time has stopped… 

07:17L

I tried hard to sleep
You are on Istanbul flight now
Just about to land
Somehow I am hugging you in our bed
You are still here, but
This house doesn’t exist  without you… 

08:33L

Never knew before this much of a passion
I never felt like this before
Floor is moving under me
Ceiling turns around
There is your endless love in my blood veins
I breath in our love
I breath out our dreams

09:51L

My love,
Do whatever you do to come back earlier…
Cause I Love You so deep and so true…

Forever yours…

I was looking for a lover to tango with

Felt contented with a waltz of 3 beats…

My bed of stone is simple has blue stripes

I still have words for you

Don’t you have one of you

Who always comes and never leaves?

I planted red rose on the snow

Don’t come yet!

Prepare every lock of your hair

For the June heat…

You are a girl unlucky with continuous melodies

Let your eyes of first kiss be quiet

Innocent and lovefull

You don’t remember anymore the day

I couldn’t touch your lips with my lips…

Well, it was around midnight…

How about 5 past midnight?

Two of us in an armchair…

Days are passing by
our flesh in flame
look at the crescent star
we all will somehow cry
your sun rised on me
time is endless now…

Swallows are flying high
this ain’t the season
all we need is the red wine
your eyes getting wet
the sun is rising on us
time is coming to an end
and we are falling in love…

The Blood in my heart is You…

You are the tears of my eyes…
The stars of the far east tonight blinking for us
the most beautiful shining one is You…

Vital blood
tears of loneliness
and a silent night…

Yet, You are the reason to wake up…

I LOVE YOU…and by uttering this I am saying nothing…
You are my Love…

We postpone love by placing a bookmark in the middle of it…

So that You are my Love,
what’s beyond that…

I LOVE YOU, and by uttering this, I had said nothing…
