Sadece özgür olanlar yaşayabilir, ama yaşayanlar özgür değildirler.

Çok yönlü insanlar vardır. Ne yazık ki onlardan değilim. Herkesin imrenerek baktığı hayatlar vardır veya toplum içinde kaybolanlar. Sosyolojik normlar içerisinde oradan oraya savrulanlar. Yaşarken çoktan ölmüş olanlar. Bu nedenle yazıyorum, bir şeyler değiştirmek için. Yetenekli miyim? Hayır, sadece tutkuluyum diyelim. Namık Kemal gibi yazamam belki ama toplumun unutulanlarını ele almayı seviyorum. Biraz gezinmek ister misin?

There are versatile individuals. Unfortunately, I am not one of them. There are lives that everyone looks at with admiration or those who get lost in society. Those, who are tossed around within sociological norms. Those who have already died while still alive. That’s why I write, to change something. Am I talented? No, let’s just say I am passionate. Maybe I can’t write like Namık Kemal, but I enjoy addressing the forgotten ones in society. Would you like to explore a bit?

    “Victory is for those who can say “Victory is mine”. Success is for those who can begin saying “I will succeed” and say “I have succeeded” in the end.” ― Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

  • Frontiers of Aspiration

    Maybe it will sound simple, but I want to be a cosmonaut. Going into space, examining things, getting lost in the depths of the universe… It sounds beautiful in a way I can’t explain. Imagine there’s a huge darkness in front of you, and you’re one of the rare individuals who can reach it. Stars, […]

  • Reflections of life

    There are many things I complain about, most of all about myself. Like constantly starting over, giving up halfway through the journey, for example. Whenever I lose something or, to give a simple example, I say I’ll lose weight and start a diet every week, only to give up in the second week. I haven’t […]

  • Stories To Names

    My name? It’s an interesting writing prompt. My full name is actually İrem Gökçe Gök. In Turkish, names are generally given based on their meanings. Some corrupted individuals might name someone after a word mentioned in the Quran. Like my father. The name İrem comes from Arabic and the Quran. Its meaning is said to […]

Writing, for me, is much more than putting words on paper. Each word is a reflection of my feelings and thoughts. Like a window opening to the world through words, writing is a way for me to externalize my inner world. With every letter chosen, every sentence carefully crafted, I strive to express what comes from within me in the most accurate and effective way. In this process, I not only understand myself better but also form deeper connections with those around me. Writing allows me to establish an emotional balance and create internal awareness. This passion has become not only an activity for me but also a way of life. Each line is a way to release the emotions within me and freely express my thoughts.

  • Gifted Gifts

    It would definitely be something meaningful. I can actually divide it into three categories. It’s not a thing, but become things. Plant, decorative lamp, and fabric doll. They all belong to my mother. I can’t say I missed her actuallyr; it has been 11 years now, and I’ve even forgotten her voice. That’s what hurts…

İntihar

Kimse duymadan ölmeliyim

Ağzımın kenarında

Bir parça kan bulunmalı.

Beni tanımayanlar “Mutlak birini seviyordu” demeliler.

Tanıyanlarsa, “Zavallı, demeli,

Çok sefalet çekti..”

Fakat hakiki sebep

Bunlardan hiçbirisi olmamalı.

Orhan Veli Kanık
