ghost, Öykü Akın
feel her breath slither through my corrupt lungs
decay my bones, each word
venomous as a sting, burn away my lips
her faint echo on the glass window
pierce through, what could have been
instead of the hollow shell she left me
no mocking on her placid face
only pity
her insides should have been my own
she shed me like dead skin, I am her corpse
Öykü Akın is an undergraduate student in Boğaziçi University and an emerging bilingual writer residing in Istanbul. She can be found writing micro fiction and poetry or working on her fantasy novel.
