In the memory of my beloved cat "Puffy"

You taught me how to love someone as it is, and what it's like to be loved by someone. I thank you and God for having spent 16 years with you. This isn't repressing my rebellion because I can't spend more than a day with you. I apologize to you and God for not being worthy of you. I love you to the moon and back.

"Flowers, flowers, I watered the flowers this morning
That rose just doesn't smile when you are not here
That flower you put in the water by the window to get it to grow roots
It is completely in grief these days
Dense and strong daylight is hitting the window
The plates are cheerless on the table
The hallway is deserted
The towels are alone in the shower
Don't even ask the kitchen - untidy and dirty
The sponge is right there, the breadbox is empty
The ventilator is breathless
The rugs are dusty
My clothes are in the wardrobe, and here and there
Memo's toy box is in deep sleep
The blue night lamp has no ambition
The door says open me, close me
The curtains are like snakes changing skin
The radio? It is silent
The stool is afraid of the chairs
The small room is dark and deserted
Everything is waiting for you, for your return
For you to come in
For the touch of your hands
For the touch of your eyes
And everything is repeating
How much I love you" Cemal Süreya
