Yellow

Despite being loyal Basrah'ian' for straight five years, I don't think I've ever been in love with yellow.

Yellow as the colour itself.

Strangely enough, I found myself in love with yellow flowers.

After my first encounter with yellow tulips in Istanbul, I wrote,

"Adakah lagi tulip sekuning ini,

atau sebenarnya, harus ditanyakan,

akan adakah lagi kuning setulip ini?"

Of what lies beneath,

Of what awaits beyond,

left unanswered.

Part of the beauty.

A somehow.
