POETRY
Am Living
โPOEM by Yahya Azeroฤlu
(Translated from Turkish)
Iโve gotten older, Iโve reached my limit,
I live with trouble and sorrow,
The page of my life notebook is over ,
Unfortunately, I am writing in the void.
Life finally ate me too,
A thousand troubles piled on top of a thousand troubles,
Now the world Iโm speeding around,
Iโm wandering around slowly.
Iโve grown old, my heart has never matured,
He was never loyal to his owner,
The wheel is broken and there are no gears left,
I also get angry at the buzzing.
Our youth walked very rudely,
The dark cloud covered the stars,
My big body melted and melted,
Iโm leaking where I sit.
Familiar time to risk,
We tied our faith to worship,
Now the cure is gone in your knees,
I draw figure eight while walking.
For a moment, the curtain was drawn over my eyes
Moreover, the ears do not hear
Thereโs nothing left to do I guess
I am suffering from pain and ache.
Words donโt stay in my memory,
Empty eyes cannot see the wound,
The tongue has grown and does not turn on my palate,
As the world speaks, I remain silent.
The handcuffs of oppression remain on my arm,
All I have left is my property and my sackcloth,
Azeroฤlu is on his last journey,
Iโm running fast.
