Uyanıştan Şiirler

OH LIFE, AM I WORTHY OF THEE? 

I arrive and fade as shadows at play

Taking streaks from my wiser ways

I paint my canvas with a bohemian flair

Oh life! Am I worthy of thee? 

I unturned every rock to look beneath

I peel every layer to reach within

Each day shows a different side of me 

Oh life! Am I worthy of thee? 

You created me as a sentient being 

I feel and express your intent through me

I am finite and you show the infinite to me

Oh life! Am I worthy of thee? 

I reflect in the mirror you hold to me 

I rewrite stories to shape the 'new me'

The creation asks it's creator

Oh life! Am I worthy of thee?
