TURKISH DELIGHT

#1 Cosmic Dust

You - a speck of cosmic dust in this vast universe

How can you hold the power to speed up time so much?

So tell me, will you love me till the last tick of humanly recorded time?

************

#2 Effortless

Loving you is effortless

I love you from the depths of my soul

From the inner corners of my heart

With every bit of warm breathe in my lungs

Without you, home is not home

And I am not me.

Like shards of broken glass,

Without you

You will find me in pieces.

#3 Batu’s hazel eyes - Duplex Style Poem

Feels like the sun itself painted your eyes

I hear rhymes and melodies when you stare

The very melody of life sung by your eyes

I am lost in the void of your hazel hue

I get lost in the depths of your hazel hue

With blended specks of green and golden too.

A beautiful chaos of green and golden tones.

An entire galaxy seems to live within you.

A vast galactic starry night revolving within you

Beneath dark blonde lashes, your eyes gaze so deeply. 

Your hazel eyes gaze deeply, looks at me intimately.

I wonder if our souls entangled through stardust before

Before the moon formed to create waves across shores

Before the sun itself took its time to paint your eyes greenish gold.

#4 The universe in you -- Inspired by Lang Leav

Feels like I was sent just for you

To follow you across lifetimes

Across millennia

And If you were to reappear before me

Across multiverses

Reincarnated

Through every end and recreation for the universe I would always choose to love you

************

#5 Early Mornings - hope you are online at 4 am

I don’t wake up at 5 am

just to listen to the birds

But in hope that I might find you

awake too

on the other side of the world

************

#6 Address to your heart

Tell me your address The road to your soul

I would ride waves across

To meet you on any shore

The mind of yours

That’s ocean deep

Your thoughts fill up my mind

I would hold your hand

and follow the dark

Leaving all the light behind

************

#7 Random

How do I explain the color blue to

someone who has never seen it ?

Or the feeling of a sea breeze to

someone who never felt it ?

And just like that it is impossible

To compose verses of my love

When you leave me depleted of words

unconsolidated

these rhythms of the heart

That echoes of us

Through time and time

The more I want to say

the more I can’t convey

You left me me lost in this

Inexplicable loop of eternal love.

************

#8 My First Poem to You

And my wish is that, you are in my life

Not just for a season

But for all the seasons I m yet to see

Through all the falls, winters, springs, summers

and all that in between

That our love doesn’t wither like

Fall’s dying leaves

That our love stays evergreen
