An attempt to create
A wish to say something or nothing,
To deceive myself or someone else
To dream my life away only by myself.
An unusual dream
A charming, vague thought
A line, a touch of transparent color
And only only the slender durable, invisible thread of desire originates.
The white color of paper
A thin line
And shape again searching of ideas
Castles in the air
Attempts to catch creative urge
And all of these are nothing but that
Each is a slave to human shape.
Times, thought are all instant
The subjectivity of the verge
The realizing of the impossibility
Acceptance and perception of the world around
It could be an attempt to affect it
By means of escaping from it.
Everyone has its own colors
As if they are only for life
They flesh on and die out
Coloring feelings in the mind.
Play on words and colors
Of everyone with his makings
But if someone felt so
Thus the colors are not only mine.
