A very meaningful one..

If you really like someone

being friends with them

is better than dating them

- from a poerty book "Learning to love myself"



'





He is half of my soul, as the poets say

- Madeline Miller "The Song of Achilles"








I had nothing to offer anybody,

Except my own confusion

- Jack Kerouac "On the Road"









The meaning of being alive

is just being alive

That's what we're all here for









Of course, I'll hurt you

Of course, you'll hurt me

Of course, we will hurt each other

But this is the very condition of 

existence

To become spring means

accepting the risk of winter

To become presence means

accepting the risk of absence

- the Little Prince

I got that feeling again

I don't know if i wanna write this

But I feel something I can't understand

Maybe I can help myself if I write it down


I watched a movie called "jack"

Robin Williams is playing the protagonist

I recommend it wildly













The plot is that Jack is a spectacular boy

his body grows very fast, while his brain is just the same

for example, when he is just 10, he looks like a 40-year-old man


So he is very old when he is 17

He will die, right?

And I start thinking that I will die too


Sooner or later everyone will die

But I got that strange feeling

Saying "nothing really matter, 

You will die anyways"


People are afraid of things they do not know

Death is one of the things we know almost nothing about

I mean, what happens to our conciousness


What happens when we die?

There are religions, telling...

But I just can not understand.


My soul doesn't want to die

It wants to live forever

So why do we die then??


I learn physics and chemistry in high school

But I won't learn biology

It is kinda because 

Biology is about what is happening with our bodies 

and other organisms' bodies


I feel like it is terrifying 

How I can breathe

How I can talk

How I can choose

while other animals just eat, fight, give birth, and die

I can enjoy life

I can hate life 

I can miss

I can kiss


Very confused right now

And emotional

I can't wait 'till the day I die

Just because I wanna learn what it is

But at the same time, I don't wanna...

What is this?

Literally...

Back to some quotes, cuz it's raining and i'm chilling

Note: I'm an idiot 'cause I've got a subject discussion tomorrow and I've got a practical physics exam on Friday. Guess what I'm doing. YESS IM WRITING TO MY BLOG. Enjoy then HAHAHAHAHA!!!

...

I'd like to think that in the end, it's us
But I can't help myself from wondering 
if you're another lesson
Another person to teach me something
Someone I don't get to keep
It's not doubt
I'm not second-guessing what we have
I'm just scared to lose it
So much loss in this life
Enough for the next one to come
So I look at the moon
And I make my wish
That it's you and me
In this life
And the next























Don't start regretting
Being a caring person
Whoever got a chance
To experience you
They just needed your light
At that time
And committed to your love
Don't you ever doubt
Your worth or your beauty

I didn't

I didn't wanna know 

but now I know

do I feel all right

yes, I do.



They asked:

Do you really feel alright?

Wait, no...

Maybe not.


I talked to myself:

I don't know what I am feeling

right now

I think I am confused like hell

I think I am both

Both 

Glad

Sad



Wednesday, April 19, 2023

Do i wanna know?

What do you feel right now?

What are you experiencing?

I wish I knew

How I could help

Other than just standing still

And watching you smile at me


That song is in my head right now

"All my emotions, 
feel like explosions 
when you are around!"

This is how I am feeling 

Every time I see you

My heart starts to race

I get relaxed in a weird way

As if I've known you since forever


But I am afraid 

Afraid that maybe

you don't feel this way

Not yet

Or you don't feel ready

You need time

And I'm rushing it


I don't even know if 

it is logical to write 

these things here

I know that if you read

You will know my thoughts

But I still won't know yours



Tuesday, April 18, 2023

Maybe my eyes were blinding you

Literally have no idea what to do

I don't know what people expect

I can't predict how they want me to act

Feeling like...

I am doing mistakes all the time


I feel like some people

Get angry or think bad about me

Because I am so open about things


I talk all the time

This is not a good sign

I let it out all the time

Maybe I should wait

Or maybe I should act

But wait

I don't know how to act


UGGGHHHH/&¤#"#&/)=#"#¤%/%%&/


Do I scare people?

I am very energetic 

when I am happy or nervous

experienced them both 

at the same time

Maybe I went crazy 

I didn't see my face 

Maybe my eyes were shining too much

It makes you wanna look away for awhile


That's normal I guess

Just know that I love you

And if I am away from you

It is because I respect you

I accept and respect you

But you are in control now

So even if i miss you

I won't do anything


I will wait my darling

Until forever

Just feel free

Because you are

Just feel your emotions

Because you're their reflections


Have a clear conscience

Listen to yourself in silence

Take a deep breath

I think this might help

Look at the darkness

Get hold of sadness


I don't know what you want

But I know what I want


I want your happiness

Those little smiles


I want your peace

Those relaxed glances


I want your craziness

Those dance moves


But mostly

I want your sadness

Those eyes...



Bir patates gibi hissediyorum

Asla gösterme

Mutsuz olduğunu

Asla onlara gösterme

Burada 

tam olarak şuanda 

Burada

Olmak istemediğini

Buradan kaçmak istediğini


Heryerde insanlar

Bana ne yapıcağımı söylerler

Ben sadece dinlerim

Hep de dinleyeceğim

Çünkü ben benim

Ve ben hep dinlerim


Acaba ne zaman böyle hisstemeyeceğim

Hissiz. 

Sessiz.

Kimsesiz.

Umutsuz. 


Sen

Evet sen

Şuanda Türk olmayan biri isen 

Ve bunu okuyor isen

Zaten çeviri yapmış olman gerek

Çok meraklı olduğunu anlıyorum

Ama ben sadece düşüncelerimi yazıyorum

Kimseyi yargılamıyorum

Ya da üzmek istemiyorum

Umarım benim kederim

Seni de kederlendirmez


Sistem beni bunaltıyor

Sistem neden hep böyle

Şuanda sınıftayım

Bir patates gibi hissediyorum

Her türlü yemeğe yakışıyorum

Tadım da ne güzel ne kötü

Çoğu insan beni sever ama

Çok da önemsemez

Yanındaki et ile birlikte çok da güzel gider ama

Be weird and happy

 Do you ever look in the mirror?


And you start to do weird grimaces

You laugh like hell

Continue to do those weird faces

You come out of your shell


I see myself 

I see a smiling face

very VERY dumb looking

I see a younger and an older version of myself

And I love all versions


Why am I so happy?

Is it because I give enough space

To think, to feel, and to process my feelings

Everyone needs that

Everyone needs time to figure things out

We will figure it out as we go


Maybe I don't know

We will figure it out

as we go...


Now I remember a song 









"figure it out"

Looks like it's all about to changeLife is such a funny, stupid gameYou say the word and I'll say the sameMaybe we can just run away

Can't always see way down the roadToo busy looking at the trees out my window

And we'll make it all up as we goAnd you crashed the party right on timeJust as the music died and on came the lightsSo help me up, bring me back to life

Maybe I don't know, We all just figure it out as we go'Cause no one really knows, We all just figure it out as we go


And I don't know why

But this song fits my vibe

right now...

Beyim Aragorn ve ben

 A wise man once said to me;

Don't be sad about the things 

you can not control

Sometimes you just have to let it be


I said;

It is an easy and wise thing to say

But is it easy to do it?


Then he said;

No, it is not

But knowing what I said

It can give you some courage

And show you that you are not in charge


I asked;

Who is in charge then?

I want to talk to them

So that they can change 

the sad things 

Happening


Then he replied;

That is a big goal

for a little young woman

I like your thought 

But things won't work like that

in this world


I insisted;

Who said I wanted to meet them 

in this world?

I could meet them in another dimension

Maybe in my dreams

Or somewhere else

But I need to meet them

So I can make a change


He said then, thoughtfully;

18-year-olds...

They always think they can change the world

How everything works

It's cruelty

They are innocent

But it won't last my darling

Don't worry

Unfortunately, this won't last long

Live in the moment

Until the silence


I ended enthusiastically;

Big goals can lead to small changes

Small changes can lead to bigger changes

Bigger changes can lead to controlling 

Everywhere, Anytime, Always

Soon...

Gibberish :]

I feel something on my stomach
I think I've got a bellyache

Maybe it's that feeling
Again I feel it

It is as if a part of me is missing
Also, I feel like it is completely hissing

You know when the universe is calling
You can hear it, with all of you listening

I feel my old wounds are aching
maybe I'm just faking

do I seek attention 
or do I seek redemption  

I hear a sound
From my childhood

I begin to feel emotional
Or maybe I am just conceptional

As if I fall from grace
Perhaps the beginning of an end 





Friday, April 14, 2023

My poetic soul in the class

You are just a little bug
Why do we even hug?

I see someone is crying
Why do I feel like I'm dying?

That someone might be the child in me
But I can't see her anymore with me

Why do I even bother to write
When I know that everything have an end.



Sunday, April 9, 2023

Party with your fears

Right now I am too emotional


Time is moving so fast

I can't do anything to stop it 

Or at least to slow it down


I just want to cry it out 

I can't do that either

I don't know why


You know, it's a feeling

I just can't explain

It comes when I am alone


I feel many things at the same time

Helpless and hopeless

As if I am all alone


The first time I felt this was

When I was in prison in Greece

Yeah, I was in a prison


I did not do anything wrong though

Or did I ?

Maybe we all did, my family


What am I saying...

We escaped from a place

Where we felt like we did not belong


The thing is 

I don't have

A belonging sense 

Anymore...


This might be the reason

Why I feel so alone

Hopeless and helpless

Because I don't belong anywhere.


I don't belong with my family,

I don't belong to any country,

I do not belong to anybody.

It's just me; myself

I don't even belong to myself.


What am I saying...

I escape from the reality

I have a family

I have friends and loved ones


But then, WHY?

Why do I feel this?

This feeling.

I just CANNOT 

F*cKiNg ExpLaIN!!!


I will maybe try again.

Maybe I can associate it

With something normal...


You know that feeling

When you watch a series

Then you watch the final episode ever

You got a weird feeling

As if someone you care about died

This is it

The feeling I have in me...


Not that someone I care about died

But that feeling when something is finished

Forever, and ever

My brain can't process that


Maybe this is it

Maybe I feel like I can't go to Turkey anymore

As if I will never see my relatives there

Or neither see the same race as me

All gathered


I think I need a feeling of belonging

But I don't think I will ever have that

So I just have to learn how to

dance with it...


If my brain can't process that;

If I think too much

I will dance in the dark

All alone

completely silent

My five senses are gone

I am 

Just there

Existing

Partying with my fears...


Saturday, April 8, 2023

Honestly I care and act

Sometimes I feel like my poetic side is awakened

I may write depressive thoughts I had

Maybe I write too honest

But there is nothing to be concerned 

I am just learning how to concede myself


When will I ever not be concerned about people though?

I wouldn't write this poem now if I was relaxed

I would think, "Nah, I don't have an impact"

Every human has an impact in fact

This is why I care and act

Alonely


Why feel so lonely

When you know you're not the only one

Surrounded by people 

Who always know better


Why feel so lonely

You can feel the company

Surrounded by an energy

You can't exactly explain


Why do you feel alone

Everyone share their home

But you don't feel at home

You are rather far away from 


Would you ever feel not alone

Considering you've blown away

Left me with memories, I can't get away

Though I never felt home


Would I even feel accompanied

When I'm not capable of

True, and naive love

When I'm not able to

Feel not lonely

What we stay alive for...

And the human race is filled with passion. 

And medicine, law, business, engineering, 

these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.

But poetry, beauty, romance, love, 

these are what we stay alive for.



Happy poetry month!

I'm Tangled

I know that holidays are for having a little break. 

RIGHT?

You should have a break from life... 

or at least get a rest or something.

NOPE, not ME!

I am destined to be bothered.

Not that I don't like to be bothered

I like to be bothered, to be honest.

I love that my friends call me, or ask me if I wanna hang out.

I love that my loved ones wanna spend time with me.

I especially love the time I spend with my special one...


BUT;


My body is tired.

My brain is tired.

My physical health is weird.

My mental health is weirder.

I just can't handle "everything", 

all at the same time.

Let me explain what "everything" means


It means; 


Even if someone dies or is injured at work,

I will work, so I have to be prepared to be there and be strong.

Even if I am in a whole different state in my life,

I will get at least a message from a friend, so I have to answer it nicely and be aware of the state of life that person is in right now.

Even if there are children in Turkey waiting for a new home after the earthquake.

I will see my friends, so I will smile and have fun.

Even if I told them what is going on in my brain would make my parents go crazy,

I will talk to my parents, so I have to pretend I am okay and don't make them worry about me.

Even if my teachers say it is a holiday and we must get a little break from school,

I will do homework until I fall asleep and try to learn new things all the time.

Even if my old friend from Turkey won't remember me or care about me anymore,

I will think for at least one minute about her and grieve because I miss her and our good times.

Even if I know my grandmother doesn't remember the things I say after every video chat,

I will talk to her with a smile on my mouth, and cry silently in my bed after that.

Even if I will get tired and use some money that I would choose not to use normally,

I will buy things and drive with my friends because I love them.

Even if it will make me sadder and angrier,

I will think about Turkey and the worldwide political situation.

Even if it will hurt me,

I will think.

Even if...i will not think,

I will hurt me. 


Now you know, 

What i think 

ALL THE TIME

No kidding

No lying

I think others,

I think others,

I think others,

I think me,

I think I need time,

But I don't have enough.

I will never have enough time.

I think I need to be understood,

I need people who understand me.

I think maybe I need to spend time with people who understand me,

Instead of spending time with people who always talk about their problems.


Your problems are my problems,

YES, I am smart and can solve your problems.

You discovered it, Bravo!

But I am not a doll,

I am not a robot,

I am human,

I breathe, 

I live,

I see,

I understand. 

I am not a problem-solving machine.

I wish you did not need to ask me to solve them,

I wish you would ask me how I solved them,

so that you wouldn't need me anymore,

so that you would solve them,

so that;

I would be a human

I would breathe

I would live

I would see

I would understand

myself.

I would solve my problems.

It would solve my problems.

You would set me free,

From this madness,

From this tangle.

Oh, i love the wise quotes

I said it before and, I'll say it again

Life moves pretty fast

If you don't stop and look around once in a while

you could miss it...




Um-
Life is good though,
I want you all to see;
that life is great...
Your life is great too.
Have a good time,
Have some fun..




On the path of love

We are neither masters

Nor the owners of our lives.

We are only a brush in the hand of the 

Master Painter...




My personality confuses people.
I enjoy being alone a lot,
But I'm also outgoing and social.
Sometimes I'm quiet,
sometimes I'm loud.
Sometimes I have nothing to say,
And sometimes I'm spoken.
I read the energy,
and adjust.




I just love those friends 
where you can just meet
for like 30 minutes 
and you just
suddenly
get happy the rest of the day
just because you spent time with them




And I was like, I don't care if I lose everything
I don't care what happens
Nothing really is ours anyway in life
We only borrow it.

Until we die

Then it all goes..

Only thing we truly own in this life is
Moments in time...

This is a moment for me that will
never be erased.
And no matter what happens
This is always gonna be my time
This will be my moment in time
Because I lived here and I was a part of this

Everything else

This bag,
This watch,
These clothes,
They'll all go...

What does it really matter?

Even my body will go.
This is a shell.
But what's inside...
I hope to god that lives forever.




There is a wonderful writer called
Alexander Hayman
Who said;
Home is where people notice when you're not there.




It's OK to feel DOWN
It's OK to CRY
It's OK to SCREAM your loungs out
but,
at the end of all that
remember to STAND once again.
face forward
and Move Again...




You know what my number one fantasy used to be?

I used to think about one day
just not telling anyone
and going off to some random place
and i'd just...
disappear.

And they'd never see me again.




Love your fucking life
Take pictures of everything
tell people you love them
talk to strangers
do that thing you're scared to do
learn to say FUCK IT 
cause nobody remembers a thing we did anyways
so just take your life and
make the best story ever <3




There are only two people in this world,
That you need to make proud.

It's not your mom.

It's not your dad.

Not your husband.

Not your wife.

Not your kids.

It's the 8 years old version of you.
And the 80 years old version of you.




To whoever needs to hear this

It's not selfish to love yourself

To take care of yourself

or to make your happiness your priority

It's necessary.




Where will you go?

Anywhere

Everywhere

Life is Short
World is Wide

I wanna make some memories...




When you stop and think about it

Soulmates come in the form of friends too

It's not just about romance 




A girl who's been alone for a while
Enjoys time by herself 
And enjoys being alone 
Doesn't mind eating alone
Having fun by herself

That's a DANGEROUS GIRL

She's comfortable being by herself 
And realizes her own self worth
Before seeking it somewhere else

She knows her POWER and POTENTIAL
Before giving any part of herself to anybody else

A girl like that, If you find her;
Never let her go...




The type of man I want...

Well, that's easier said than had.
And it's been taking a while,
But don't worry, I'm not mad.
Not in a rush
Because I guess he's patient like me
And some higher power knows something that 
I can't see

Smart and very funny
gentle and so kind
absolutely handsome
and can sometimes read my mind
He makes me feel wanted
voicemails sent to my phone
and we can be at home anywhere
just the two of us
there alone
Turns the music higher
loves to tell me how he fell
Doesn't whisper "I love you"
because he says it with a full yell 
No room for second-guessing
He says exactly what he means
and because we're good partners
I cook and he cleans, 
He cooks and i clean.

Loves to surprise me,
Love to surprise him.
Like how i never saw him coming,
Like how he never saw me coming.

And even if it takes a really long time 
I know he'll love the woman I'm becoming...



Light

 I fall in love with people's passion.

The way their eyes light up when they talk about the thing they love...

The way they fill it with light...

The doors

When we meet people for the first time,

There is a door.

You are holding the door handle on one side,

The other person is holding it on the other side.

If you both try to open it your way,

And push it,

You can't get to know each other

Your vibes don't match each other.

But, if you relax a little bit and open it up against yourself,

And the other person pushes it against you gently.

You will get to know each other.

Thus, after a while, you will push the door against them,

If they relax and let you open it against them,

You will get to know them.

Even better,

You will find a person who matches your vibe.

This can be either a friend, soulmate, or whatever...

I just love it when it happens.




There are people in this world.

Unfortunately and fortunately...

Every person has their own character and movie.

They are their own headliner.

Everyone has their own unique door.

They might open it for some people, 

So that some people can join their movie and bring joy.

They might force it against others, 

So they can't ruin their movie.

This is why sometimes we choose not to talk to people.

We already know that a specific person can bring the movie joy,

Or ruin it.

Again, some wise quotes..

Little miss hopeless romantic

Little miss people pleaser.

Little miss answers your texts right away,

and hands out trust without a second glance.

Little miss falling in love with the type of people,

who need healing more than romance.

Little miss always sees the good.

Little miss making excuses for your unkindness.

Little miss loved you too much.

Little miss couldn't walk away when I knew I should.

Little miss second and third chance,

And fourth and fifth and sixth.

Little miss had ENOUGH.

Little miss began to unravel the lies you told me.

Little miss realizing empty hearts deserve empty hands.

Little miss taking back who I was before all of this.

Little miss realizing that I am worth MORE.

Little miss, i am my little miss before i was ever yours.





What is the bravest thing you ever said?
...
Help.
Asking for help isn't giving up.
It's fighting.





If there is any kind of magic in this world,

 it must be attempt of understanding, sharing something.

I know.

It's almost impossible to succeed,

but,

Who cares, really?

The answer must be the attempt.





Him: I might kiss you.
Her: I might be bad at it...
Him: That's not possible...





My advice to you is please don't ever,
Sit in your room,
And lock yourself away.
Because you don't think you're good enough...





You know, sometimes...
Your mind plays tricks on you.
It can tell you you're no good,
That it's all hopeless.
But I have discovered this,
You are loved,
And important,
And you bring to this world,
things that no one else can.
...
So, hold on.
*hugs*

- The fox (from the boy, the mole, the fox and the horse)





Sometimes, when I'm sad,
I like to watch humans
Being human -

Strangers giggling as they
Step side to side when
Bumping into each other
On the street

Small jumps over puddles

Giving each passing dog a
Little smile and hello

Hugging coffee cup a
Little closer when the
Breeze becomes sharp

Embraces outside cafes

Pausing to smell flowers
And capture sunsets

The human experience 
Delicate and beautiful





I'm scared of getting older, baby

Don't wanna face the world ahead of me

I'm dealing with enough already

I hate

How fast

The time

changes...



Listen, all I'm saying is
It's not my fault you thought I was normal
You had plenty of time
And more than enough clues to figure that shit out
on your own




To the person who will love me,
In the anxiety that I have.

I hope you understand that,
I overthink a lot.

I worry a lot.

I get scared a lot.

I think of the worst.

I expect the bad outcome.

And it's not because I don't care,
Or that I don't trust you.

It's because I care too much,
And I don't trust my Thoughts.




I haven't heard your voice in years
Buts my heart still has conversations with you,
Everyday...

Grief hurts.

And nothing or no one,
Can replace a loved one who's gone.




I have a question for you.

I you could go back in time,
to one day in your life, and 
re-live one single moment.

What would it be?

...it would be a single moment I had with my childhood friend...




And then hold in your heart this prayer...

This day in my life will NEVER come again.
I will never see the people I am looking at again.
I will never see the sunrise again, 
and never see THAT sunset...

I will never see the person having breakfast with me again..
Just THIS way.

No, nothing in my life like THIS,
Will ever come AGAIN.

That alone,
That choice alone,
Should take out of your heart,

...every bitter taste there is.

That it should shape the life around you,
with such grace & such beauty,
and make you ONLY want to see;

THE PRESENT.

With great gratitude,
and love.
