Dua

By inexperienced

The sky is bleeding
Streaming down on my chest,
Colouring my crimson skin
Into crowning crystalline.
Doomed to remember Him
In vain.
For my culture forbids me;
Giving me instructions about
When to paint my fingernails
Yet He, the one, loves me all-
In all.
I feel thy presence
Above my head
Do not forsaken me
Senin her seye gucun yeter.

    It's prayer in Turkish but I don't know maybe Arabs call it the same way. There are some words coming from Arabic to Turkish.By the way did you know that 'Nuri' is also Turkish for a boy's name?

    No wonder people keep thinking I'm a boy! *contemplates worriedly* It means bird in Malay though.
