Title of The Work: Faith…
Original Title: İnanç…
Genre: Prose Writing
To believe…
This is not a religious message…
From past to present, experienced, felt, supernatural events, etc. Whatever you call it, faith, hope, karma, energy, this is a constant state of expectation that tires a person’s mind and self. You start asking yourself… Devamını Oku…

Title of The Work: Bring Your Name
Original Title: Adını Sen Getir
Genre: Prose Writing
I sit in front of the doner shop, watching the meat being slaughtered and the people who slaughter me pass by.
About thirty people have passed through the street, thirty different stories. I always do this, I always put other people’s stories in front of my own. I write more painful stories for them, I want to prove to myself that I am not the one who suffers the most. But in vain, does everyone enjoy this life we call a stopover? They do, watching a movie makes you happy, kissing your lover, holding your mother’s hand tightly or laughing with your friends. Devamını Oku…

Title of The Work: Oh Leyla…
Original Title: Ah Leyla Ah…
Genre: Prose Writing
Oh Leyla… Blood stains in my heart, the smell of roses in my nostrils. Trouble burned, water ignited. To make a long story short, my situation is very delicate Leyla. Whenever my sleep is interrupted, I know it’s you. Don’t touch me or I’ll cry! I’m good if I write you, bad if I don’t. I use your name in a sentence and it becomes a poem. A whole sky fits in your eyes, I fly a seven-colored kite. I found you, I got rid of my troubles, you’re my outfit. Please, let’s leave everything aside, let’s not break down. Devamını Oku…

Original Title: Her Gecenin Bir Sabahı Oluyor
Genre: Prose Writing
The introduction is the most difficult part when I start writing. Afterwards… Then it comes to mind and all the words and sentences are lined up like a string.
It flows just like time. Devamını Oku…

Title of The Work: Viewpoint
Original Title: Görüş Açısı
Genre: Prose Writing
What does one run away from, what does one fear?
What have I been running from all this time? What have I been afraid of? What can’t I explain even to myself? What is necessary for the liberation of my soul and mind? Under one question, there are dozens of question marks. What am I supposed to do? Surely there is a way out of here. What is it that you can’t even tell yourself, what are the fears, what are the fears, what are you running away from? If you find this out, your soul will be relieved, but you don’t know where to start, do you? Devamını Oku…
