    The speaker comes every morning to the beginning of a street hoping to see a loved one pass by. When they catch a glimpse of their love from afar, their heart races and tulips bloom within them, embracing their body with warmth. However, when their love passes without acknowledgment, the speaker's blood, mind, and soul freeze, feeling as if their existence does not matter. Still, the hope of seeing their love again gives the speaker reason to face each new day.

    Original Description:

    A famous poem of Ahmet Yalcinkaya.

    Love
    I come every morning to the beginning of this street
    thinking that you will pass from here
    I wait, wait, and wait
    when you are seen from far
    my heart does not fit to its cage,
    tulips bloom in me
    an inexplicable warmth embraces my body
    I burn from top to toe
    I do not see who is on the street, I cannot see.
    I do not see the trees
    and when you approach
    freezes my blood, freezes my mind
    freezes my soul
    everything freezes in me
    you just pass by,
    it does not change anything whether I exist or not
    it does not matter for you, for the world
    or for the sun
    when I return home
    I carry a dream with me
    there is still a reason again
    to overcome the dark and cold night
    still a reason for me,
    another reason to reach tomorrow morning,
    I will run again,
    I will run again the following morning
    to the beginning of the same street
