A BLOOM THAT CAME TOO SOON

Ali Baba Karakaş – 03 Ocak 2026


I'm searching for myself
Where have I ended up?
Like a caravan without a compass
I vanished in your absence

If you took me with you
Let me go before I run out of breath
I let you rise to the sky from my heart
Don’t fall back down as rain to the earth

Like you dried out my heart
Don’t let daisies wither in the soil
Cruel is a word I can't let touch my lips
I loved you deeply, without a doubt

You're a blossom that came too soon
Your heart, like a tree that never bears fruit
Your eyes—a muddy, bottomless well
I got lost in them—let me drift free

Don’t lock me in your desires
Set my soul free
My heart grows cold within your arms
Is there any of me left from before you?
