Crying Smiles

To read all posts of Yahya Azeroğlu, Please click here

Don’t think that this smiling face of mine is happy.

There are a thousand sorrows in my single laughter, 

The strange nightingale draws the dice in vain,

Those who will laugh for the sake of laughing cried.

Smiles made me wail,

Red cheeks groaned in pain,

My lips could not embellish the words,

Smiles cried for tongues,

I said my life but

darling didn’t answer,

My soul consoled by dreams,

Scattered from the heart of faded love,

Smiles cried for the ashes.

It’s a helpless wound, believe me.

The influences are gone in the past,

Broken glass window,

cried for the tulles.

Friends do not heal heartache,

You are the best of friendships,

The love of my heart consumed my life,

Smiles cried for years.

Azeroğlu, I made you laugh,

I embroidered the loop on my lace,

Waiting patiently to die,

Laughs cried for Situations.

….
