When Life Leaves Your Hands
Summary of his view on life; It was about holding the hands of life, grasping it tightly, living whatever it took, however it was necessary. You fill your content like this and get angry when it doesn't happen. Sometimes you would feel resentful, sadness would flow from your lines. You said you had to live and resist despite everything.

Lastly, he spoke in verses about living like a testament: I want to live like a soulful melody/ that gets better with every sound/ To be loved like the taste of wine/ the product of the best vintages.

And you wanted to be in a fight, as if you were falling in love... "O life/ Like poetic words/ I want to live the fight/ In the dawn of my anger that does not spring/ The voice of the mountains is pouring out/ In the streets I pass by./ Barricade by barricade is catching fire..."

Those famous lines about living and resisting or: "Do not let go of my handcuffs, my dear, what will happen?/ This heart plays a thousand zeybeks with you"

And one day; Despite your will, your desire to be on the street, you had to go. He left the hands of life... Was it nature's call then, did you say should you obey now? It wasn't fully understood, but the moment you said to those around you, "No matter what is necessary," you let go of the hands of life, which you identified with resistance.
You lived so intensely, so fully; Yes, but you left behind so much to live for.
