Tokmak

 

hitabem iltihap

 patikam kat sayımda sal

 koordinatlı bir hava

eğimli bir mızrak

çizmeme sarılmış sarmaşıklar

suyun üstü berbat

 her savaşta bir sur daha savunduğum halklardan

her gece güzel hayaller kuruyorsan 

kurma

korsan !

i see the skyline in your eye
atop black blue and white
voice shaking like candlelight
i said I loved you in a past life
as your lips found mine
chest too tight for words to work right
in july a line was drawn
tonight it’s being danced upon
flames of past lives tickling the sky
a heart my heart can’t see beyond
it’s torture until the feeling’s gone
not this time
i keep this flash drive at all times
upload my mind the day I die
i'll keep a place for you inside
concern turns into a smile
just promise me you’ll stay alive awhile
at least for the sunrise
in july a line was drawn
tonight it’s being danced upon
flames of past lives tickling the sky
a heart my heart can’t see beyond
it’s torture until the feeling’s gone
not this time
bright white blind
crawling confusion
to a quarter way through
life can take a lifetime to get used to
fewer questions arise
when I’m with you
