"NOT ANOTHER PRIMADONNA COMPLEX!"
I see you with my open eyes. It doesn't take long to realise you're the kind who believe you're all that, but I think you're just sad. You sit on your made-up throne, claiming true power is your...
"THE FIGHT THAT NIGHT"
Please don't start a fight. I just need us to get along tonight. I know we've never really treated each other right, but let's not attract the crowd. We're both too tired. This same old game has...
"IRONIC: CLAUSTROPHOBIA IN AN OPEN SPACE"
Some feelings are best kept hidden behind the walls of your heart. They might tear your perfectly intact world apart. Some thoughts are running inside your head. What if they can also drive the w...
"HAVE YOU SEEN HER TODAY?"
Have you seen her today? The last time he recalls, she was still right in his arms. Her tiny fingers touched his stubbly face, her girlish giggles caused that warmth in his gaze. Have you seen h...
"BIG BROTHER'S HOME-COMING"
He's told me about you - two lovely souls so pure and true. Your sweet, childlike innocence is a blessing. It's the world of joy you bring. Semih, I'd like to get to know you. He says you're coo...
"LOVE ON THE COUCHES"
I wish for your arms around me, instead of this sweater and blanket. But you're already asleep, so this is just as far as I can get. Never mind, love. For me, your presence is already enough. Fe...
"INSIDE THIS LABYRINTH"
This solid ground is a silhouette. The comfort zone feels like the weakest bet. Where do I go from here? Will they remember me if I disappear? Forever is an absurd concept, when there are th...
"YOUR CRESCENT MOON-LIKE SMILE"
The crescent moon is shaping a mysterious smile in the dark tonight. I'm stranded in the unknown, waiting for the already lost spark of light. Where has it gone? What has been done? Sometimes t...
"DO NOT DISTURB!"
Let me sleep tonight. I don't want another fight. I don't care who's wrong or right. I only need some decent sleep tonight. So let me sleep tonight, or there'll be some serious fight and none of...
"JUST A GIRL IN B-17"
Night-time chatterers. Speculations behind this door. Who's that girl in B-17? How has she been? How come she never comes out? Her ghostly existence causes suspicions and doubts. Still, no need ...
"GOODBYE, UNREQUITED LOVE"
Good night, bittersweet illusion. For just tonight, I'll let you haunt me in my dreams. Don't get too vivid with me, or I might cry these streams or tears. By tomorrow, I'll simply ditch you as ...
"FORGET HIM"
Forget the way his deep, dark brown eyes gaze. I know how he often puts you in a daze. Forget his sweet smile, even when it beats your heart in seconds and miles. Forget his soft-spoken voice wh...
"THE NEWBIE'S ANXIETY"
See me for the first time: What do you have in mind? Hear my voice as I speak: Is it noise that could make you tick? Listen to me: Perhaps I am more than you see. Watch what I do: Is it good eno...
"YOU ARE LOVED"
You are loved. There’ll always be one who finds you more than good enough. Even when they think you’re not pretty, there’s one who finds and appreciates your true beauty. You are loved, even whe...
"STANDING MY GROUND"
My personal fortress has been ruined. I think that's what happened. I've pushed aside those dark thoughts and feelings, pretending they all died within. My isolated castle now sounds more like a...
"I'D RATHER GO OUT IN THE RAIN"
I'd rather go out in the rain allowing cold drops of water to wash away the pain. Although there's not even a single scratch on me, I'm talking about what you can't really see. "But you're going...
"TICK TOCK (ON THE VERGE OF SEPARATION) "
I want to see you everyday as I do. Your smiles brighten up this room, chasing away all the gloom. Let me have a look at you, all because I need to. Glowing orange's the colour of your aura. You...
"THE BOY OF MARCH AND THE NOVEMBER GIRL"
The boy of March and the November girl; two souls crossing each other's paths in this world, stories to tell, sending hopes into a wishing well. The boy of March has found his true love. Suddenl...
