VİOLET, THE SOUL OF YOU

Loving you, my lifetime passed within my heart
The love that fell into me—come, return to my soul
So many springs I waited—come, don’t stay away
I found your scent in the heart of a violet

In every dream I’ve built, you were there
In the potted violet, I imagined you
Colorful violets lined up on the windowsill
Blooming smiles to the sun

I dressed you in the colors of violets
Though just a dream, I lived you, my beloved
Sometimes bare, sometimes in a purple dress
A kiss on your brow—tasted of violet

Your lips, red as a violet
Stars filled the darkness of your eyes
A blue brooch upon your white shirt
Even the sky envied your hue

I want you so deeply—
Like dawn longs for the sun
Like night’s love for the stars
Like the purple violets' love for the light—
I want you.
