YOU’RE THE FIRE, I’M THE ASH

Ali Baba Karakaş – 03 Ocak 2026


If you go silent, the world goes still
The universe sinks into hush and gloom
If you take your eyes away from me
I’m lost in darkness, stripped of all light

In you, I found my truest self
A world without you is cloaked in dark
With you, life tastes like spring again
The sun is warm with you—my only spark

Love finds its meaning in your eyes
And passion is the fire in your heart
Let me be the ashes of that blaze
Be the wind—scatter us across the world

Let our ashes bloom into love
With you, colors begin to make sense
I knew spring by the warmth in your breath
And rode the heat of summer in your love

You flowed into my heart like a rushing stream
Your echoing voice held the sound of valleys
And in your eyes, I saw the stars
You became a spring to my thirsting lips
