I lost
myself in the Aegean Sea. My body scattered, none of the pieces of mine comes
ashore...
In this worldly
life, evil is common, stormy bad news are like breezes... Rana hears that her
husband will be imprisoned after the court. She cannot stand it and
hospitalized. Taken to intensive care, sent home with a hearse. Her three
children are orphans...
While three
children become orphans, other three walk to eternity in the sea.
Maden family’s
right to life is taken away. The police raided their house again and again. So
family goes on a hazardous journey. What happens next, you know. Our humanity
washes ashore…
At about the
same time, camp authorities brings me an envelope. Inside, a paper indicates
that we can have resident permit. And three other children gains right to live
in Europe.
I am like a
bride, getting married after the day her father died.
How to afflict
your stomach by eating hot and sour together? This good news flow through my
cells like a cancerous stomach’s pain. My thoughts go back. The cost of not to
obey to the tyranny means good news to someone while means lives other.
Thinking these, I fly far far away…
After that
moment, pain never offers me a meal, hope never salutes…
It’s not
loneliness, it’s the desolate. Like Rabiyat-ul Adeviyye, may God be pleased, I
want my knees to touch my prayers’. I look for brightness from prayer’s knees.
Oh God…
Once,
Hussein martyrized in Karbala.
Our Hussein
gave his life in cold waters.
Pained weak
people of us, praying on our knees,
Waiting for
a piece of light from you…
