Okan Emanet Poems

A leaf once set off his journey to a life of the unknown
Many years ago from a family of high nobility he was grown
Terrified by the strong wind from time to time blown
The sentiments have become phenomenon for his vein
...

What do you expect from me?
the trace of shine or the name of beauty
where will you find the same blind one
or do you think you will have him done
...

What lies in-between the hills
Determines what shares your wills
How you can survive brings your being
What you believe or adore in a song
...

Whether you want to fly away like a bird,
Or you feel the desire to stay firm next to me like the humanity of the world,
I’ll always live in paradise with you and in your eyes
It doesn’t matter, I mean, as I’ve told you, before
...

Life is a game with sheer mystery
It deprives of every aspect of beauty
It stuns your breath to have merry
It slums the door of tomorrow,
...

From my flow of blood
To the deed of flood,
I am totally starving in the sea of your lack
There is no hope other than waiting for your turnback
...

There is something in the air talking about my loneliness
There is something in the sky full of burning stars
There is something in the sight verifying aches of blue
There is something in my heart so touching and moving
...

Upon a source of bliss and radiant smile is based my survival
Within a range of sunshine passes all the feeling of arrival
Through an anguished stick of terror goes every betrayal
Out of need for reaching upon your springs all my trial
...

As a man deserted on a chilly mountain,
Have a just short look at the sky
And ask yourself whether what you see is still blue
If the answer is yes,
...

Just like the location of the moon in the sky,
The papers of the calendar in my life get to fly
When the word “moon” loses its first two syllables,
“on” becomes into a body, coming before all day-babbles
...
