My Beautiful One - Not a Good Choice

When I fell in love with you,
I imagined that our love would take place 
between your heart and my heart,
Unfortunately, after a while,  
I figured out that it would happen

between your mind and your heart

between my mind and my heart

and between your mind and my mind

not between you and me

I think we’d better give it up
as it sounds rather scarry

Soon After a Summer Noon

In order to avoid the sun
I sat in the shade of a tree
licking my ice cream,
I thought it was a great dream,
Yet what I saw was the life itself
melting away off my ice cream

So-Called Aid

Whenever a country in poverty 
but rich in natural resources
is in dire strait 
whatever is done by wealthy countries 
is only for it to take the bait

A drop of rain

Poems Related To War- Painful Facts

The causes of World War I, 

factors such as political, 
territorial 
NATIONALISM, 
and economic competition,
BENEFITS,
and not to let it ocur, 
the breakdown of the balance of power
SUPERIORITY
as well as a series of diplomatic clashes
PRIDE

The causes of World War II

strong currents of revanchism in German politics,
PRIDE;
the worldwide economic crisis,
BENEFITS,
many people lost faith in democracy 
and countries across the world 
turned to authoritarian regimes,
and their ambitious and aggressive domestic and foreign policies
NATIONALISM

To those three peculiarities – NATIONALISM, PRIDE, BENEFITS,
we should also add two more today – OVER POPULATION that the earth cannot feed,
and CLIMATE CHANGE 

What do you think the causes of World War III will be?
Well, no need to be a prophet to say what will happen 
Now all those outcomes are visible in our time
Nevertheless, 
The only thing that we want is
to live all around the world in peace
how can we manage to do that?
In the way one of the greatest leaders in history,
Mustafa Kemal ATATÜRK said
“PEACE AT HOME, PEACE IN THE WORLD”

You Reap What You Sow

If you plant dummy politicians
in the field of politics, 
you will just feed on 
decaying policy or corruption
the result is inevitable,
individual adaptation,
dramatic rises 
in conspicuous consumption 
social destruction,
and eruption,
the final stage,
reconstruction

A Matter of Evaluation

Every day, 
I feel that 
I have to learn 
one more word,
When I use 
each one 
after the other,
the combination 
rocks 
my whole world

Why Not Just Before That

Seconds after shaking my head 
in benign amusement,
I got it,
our social class was a major determinant

Why Do Some People Swear At Their Own Fates

Almost all people just try to steer 
their own life cars 
in their own ways,
few, through wide highways,
a great number, 
through narrow lanes
with no gains
but in too many pains
so they all swear 
at not what they haven't done
that they should have done,
but at their own fates

In the Pubs

Never bare your soul,
otherwise, you will most probably 
have created your own black hole
