güven

bazı şeyler düzeltilmez, kırılır
vurulmuş bir çocuk izlerini silmez
bazı kelimeler düşünülmez konuşulur
bazı düşünülen iki katı zarar verir

bazı hayaller kurulmaz, yaşanırlar
kuşlar da evvel uçmaktan korkardılar
bazı zamanlar geçirilmez, harcanırlar
bazı harcanmış olan iki kat yükseğe uçturur

bazı aşklar ne yaşanır ne unutulur
pişmanlıklar ne terkedilir ne eğitir
bazı meyveler çürümüşken bile yenilmeli
İşte bunlardır seni kendine ulaştıran

iki

Yemin ederim ki gözlerin arkasına
iki bakış
ını yakan mum saklıdır.
Onları kapatmazsan dünyam kararmaz.

Trust

some things don't get fixed they get broken
a child who's been hit keeps the scars
some words are not thought but get spoken
some thought do double the harm


some dreams are not dreamed they are tasted
birds, too, once were frightened to fly
some times don't get spent they get wasted
some wasted give double the high


some loves are not loved nor forgotten
regrets not let go nor learnt from
some fruits must be eaten though rotten
they're steps to the one you become

at once I was smitten
my heart woke from sleep
my arms curled around you
to hold you to keep

the poems I’d written
on wavetops to stay
for a lingering moment
you’d read them and say

that the hope I now nurture
is one you’ll lend wings
when arms get divided
our souls may still sing

to a tune we together
invent and let soar
to a song of forever
one moment and more

he didn't cry when they found him on the doorstep
or complain when love was interchanged for goods


he was fed and he was guarded
never hungry, always safe
he was cared for, he was sorted
growing bigger day by day

he was given all he needed
but was never in demand
surely he was not mistreated
just required once to stand

on his own feet and be leaving
to a life of mad success
and remember to be speaking
of their kindness in excess


he didn't cry when he was hugging them farewell
he kissed goodbye and he was surely never missed

and in his life 
before and after

he had a single sad regret
he wished his mother and his father
had never 
ever 
met

I knew it
If I had another chance
I’d live more fully
Turn it all around

From fear I would discover my desire
From sorrow I would manifest my strength
And having had complaints and been a crier
My shortcomings would suddenly gain length

And here I am and sitting and I’m thanking
That life presented me a second chance
And here I am more fully and I’m thinking
My thoughts which now can purposefully dance

I miss

A voice
It isn’t enough
A memory
Hardly enough
A promise
Terribly vague
A ransom
Never to pay

free flee flea fallin

disappear
without a warning
will you do it
to be free
if a flower
from the soil
should grow on you
depend
alone would surely die

disappear
without a warning
as a bird
you need to fly
once returned
you only wonder
why the tears
the solemn eye

people, friends and family
finally retreat
now in your depravity
shame is obsolete

why change the one
who needs to run
why run
the planet’s round

you’ll never catch a single breath
you’ll never win the race with
death

disappear
without a warning
will you do it
to be free
if a flower
needs protection
from a flower
would you flee?

disappear
without a warning
to your understanding wife
disappear
without a warning
will you make the run
your life

everybody knows you run
why change what you have always done
and people
they forgive
that you pursue
to remain free
the shame is obsolete
in your undue depravity

disappear
without a warning
maybe weeks
you wish to run
will you do it
once you father
a dependent baby son

if a flower needs protection
will you raise it
to the bloom
if you run
without a warning
our blossom faces doom

empty with a hint of desperation
easily the prettiest of all
I wonder if I grant her satisfaction
could I for my attention make her crawl

vacant are her eyes to most observers
I for one see searchlight in their gaze
all the desperation that concerns her
I could almost certainly erase

and after she’s reborn in my affection
day by day more restless would I grow
surely if she senses my rejection
boredom of our perfect status quo

surely she would shed a hundred teardrops
surely I would further pull away
empty with a hint of desperation
again she’d be tomorrow or today

what a poor dependent love forsaken lady
yet easily the prettiest of all
one day she will grow stonger and then maybe
once more and far more deeply I would fall

loving her is effortlessly easy
loving she is bound to be fulfilled
I miss her and believe me it would please me
to see her shining happy. and she will.

he really loved the children
one happy family
he really loved the children
so unmistakably
he really loved the children
confused and teary-eyed
he really loved the children
but never quite said why
he really loved the children
so fragile, pure and slim
he really loved the children
blue spots and boney limbs
he really loved the children
whose souls he tore apart
he really loved the children
their silent trustful heart
he really loved the children
their secrets so well kept
from all the love the children
they wept. and wept. and wept.

now

the present is
when you’re totally present
with the present
of the present.
do you like your present,
my present?
am I your present
cause you surely are mine
a present
from the present
of the present
that I love

paneelmaja

kevadõhtu
hõiked, millest suudan eraldada vaid
õllelõhna ja
üksteise ületrumpamise ühtekuuluvust

paaritumistantsud. meelitatud naer
tubakavärvid ja lõhnakõned
praksuvad siidripurgid maniküüritud käed

millal nad magama lähevad?
Millal nad üles ärkavad?
Ja kuhu viib neid hommikune rong?

Tulnukas

I recall
to me a stranger was born
I held my
baby but felt no connection
affection

is it oh is it
a girl or a boy
is she or is he
a child or a toy

I want to give you my Love..!
but I don't even know who you are!!!

oh... but she was so special...
oh yeah, she was...
oh he was so special
he was so wise

X-raying...
desires and fears
with...
her heart, mind, soul and eyes

is she or is he 
a girl or a boy
am I his mother 
or am I her toy

alien babies
are born more today
cameleon babies 
born to x-ray

alien babies 
our mirror is here
cameleon children
re-appear

alien babies 
they mean you no harm
by changing us as
they kiss and disarm

monodialogue


on the great journey of self discovery one must realize what it is that makes him tick... what it is that we can identify with. our will? our ways? our shiny hair?
our pain? our love? our sense of fair?
our notions all of right and wrong?
or with our soul? where we belong?

so... even if we never manage to fit our self in words... perhaps the goal is to stop trying.
we are.
what more is there to say?

well, I'm a woman
able to talk 
endlessly,
for days.

and there you go.
new poem.
drumroll, please.

___________________________________________________





emotions
they are dumb
and mind
erroneous
while heart
is resolute

how strange...
most days I 'm able to
both master my emotions
and then control my mind
my silly little heart alone
has little sight, is blind...
it only wants to love

how strange
emotions like a passing wind
blow left and all around
my mind is strange
once in a while
I get lost in it's ways
a tree with branches stretching wide
leaves dancing in a breeze
how strange there do occur the days
when I can master both
and please
my yearning for control

and then
my heart
poor little child
has little discipline
poor little heart
too open wide
too weak, too weak for me

"go left"
I say
and it turns right
"come back"
it leaves without a sight
oh heart
did you not hear what I commanded you to do?
oh heart, you silly little thing
why won't you ever listen to
my thoughts
why don't you ever follow through
with that which I must do?

why not? the heart replies
to me you rarely speak at all
or hear my good advice
you only worry
contemplate
over a pair of rolling dice
you barely listen to my truth
and of that truth,
"dreckitude"
the most of it declare
I only do react in ways I thought you would think fair

accept what you can never change
I stand free in all my ways
of love I only know to speak
if that's what you say makes me weak
my dear
you must be right
but love, we shouldn't fight

okay?

Aşk

Shakespeare’s but a shadow
of the feelings you induce
though my words, too, they do fall short
to silence I refuse

there’s not a language I have heard
or thought I’d bring myself to learn
that now I use
invent with you

I never thought I may find life
so hard
to fit in words

I never thought I’d find a life
so far
from reaching words

I guess I could come to describe
the motions
or the smells
or tell someone you are the one
and smile
hope they can tell

that they have, too, faced life events
that language fails to replicate
that life indeed is bigger than
ourselves and beyond death

that there are moments we survive
without a single breath
to feed
our lungs

there’s something else that makes us be
we’ve suffered much to phrase
to put in words
to fit in clay
to reach, materialize

but those who would keep still
amazed
I think
were rather wise
some things in life you know you just
can never perfectly describe
they wouldn’t fit the vowels or the consonants
or art
or music, though at hinting stuff
it has a major part

a pair of eyes
I can’t describe
have silently begun
to pull me to an endless space
post words
pre-birth
of love
