Hayat
She is my daydreamer
The girl that wandered far but never away
Closed her eyes and relaxed her body
"I'm so happy" she would whisper
An utterance that would appreciate the moment
Hayat
She taught me to breathe consciously
To find peace within me
I learned to be content with the sky
And it's moods
Because of Hayat
I waited for time
Hayaat
She taught me how to smile
How to loosen my shoulders
And put a skip in my steps
When it felt like things are going wrong
My life, her forehead would touch my back
She would splay her fingers across my lungs
Bir nefes yeter
She would say
One breath is enough
Yavaşça
Slowly
Yavaşça
Life taught me how to live
