Turuncu Gokyuzu

Icimdeki yangin,
Okyanus uzerindeki yangin.
Turuncu okyanus,
Turuncu gun batimi
Icimdeki turuncu
Icimdeki mavi
Icimdeki dogu ve bati,
Icimdeki ses,
Bir icim su.
Okyanus kadar...

Elastic Spirit

I do not know how elastic my spirit might be, what pleasure I might have in living here and breathing and wandering as free as a stag about this beautiful coast if the remembrance of you did not weigh so upon me...Ask yourself my love whether you are not very cruel to have entrammelled me, so destroyed my freedom. Will you confess this in the Letter you must write immediately and do all you can to console me in it - make it rich as a draught of poppies to intoxicate me - write the softest words and kiss them that I may at least touch my lips where yours have been. ~John Keats ( from Letters to Fanny Brawne)
