Loud Rain

The rain is loud now, As if a giant feet arises from the clouds To step on the river under the bridge of my heart And disturb it in such a way That the sails of ships bend, And the water touches the bridge from below, Tickling it to sorrow… The rain is loud now, But actually, it has always been like this. You were there once, And I never felt it. But now, All there is Is this sorrow That tickles me from inside, As if it wants me to laugh, Yet doesn’t let me At the same time…

I just want to meet you again

 Come to me like fireflies in the dark

So I may catch you in a bottle

And look at you forever

With green light in my eyes.

Come to me like the wind on a calm day at sea

So I may steer this ship to the port

And never get on it again.

Come to me like fire trying to stay alive

On a piece of wood in the snow,

Like grass through a cracked wall,

Like an empty bottle of wine thought to be full,

Ignored by the waiter.

I just want to meet you again.

I know

That it's like trying to complete a jigsaw puzzle

With a leaf for a missing piece,

Like trying to create railway tracks

By driving trains in the desert.

It just doesn’t work.

I kick the door and hurt my feet,

I jump into the water and drown.

I kiss in my dreams

And dance alone in a room,

Pretending like Tchaikovsky plays in the background.

Sometimes they knock and I don’t answer,

Sometimes they tell and I don’t open the door.

I must  be sleeping.

Yes.

And I wait for you to kiss me,

Dance with me,

Awaken me.

I am asleep.

Can't death come quick?

 A flower fell off a bouquet, And someone stepped on it. And they all went about with their business. But I can’t help but stare at it; The act of hastening death. Everyone went about their business. But I can’t help but stare at it; The dewless petals, The red colour blackening with the creeping shadow of death, The stalk separated from the head Like with a guillotine. It might have been plucked from it's family, From the other flowers. But it's okay. They'll die as well. It's just that this flower will die faster. But in this world where everything happens in a rush, Can’t death do the same?

Footprints

 Is the beach devoid of footprints Or are there so many that they bury each other. Either way, it's the same. There is no path for anyone to follow. And no one can make a new path that lasts, Because one buries the other. Then some people try to surf; At least, Those lines in the water will last longer. Is the beach devoid of footprints Or are there so many that they bury each other. Either way, No one goes anywhere while being noticed.

This morning

The yellow light squeezes between buildings Like a gentle beast, Tickling the windows like petals on water. The yellow light squeezes between buildings And the noise wakes me up. I open the window; A yellow finger patting my head, Making me giggle like a child. There is smoke, There is noise, There are the cranes rotating about the horizon. But there is you as well, Yellow beast… There is you as well, Mighty beast. There is smoke there is noise, There is the smell of coal and tar. But there is you as well, Yellow beast… There is you as well, Mighty beast. And that’s all I need…
