Burning Up
No More Chances
I burnt this marriage to the ground
Only thing I hear now
Is the loud, empty sound
Of a tomorrow that never comes
And a yesterday already gone
I have to say goodbye
All I got from you were lies
Time to pack up and leave
You should have wised up
And forever we could be
You chose to walk your path alone
Too bad there is only one of me
You can not have a clone
You can not have the strength I gave you
You messed that up, now screw you
I am gone because
You chose wrong

Istanbul is a city bristling with life, a place where past and present, sacred and profane, intertwine under the watchful gaze of the Sultan Ahmet Mosque. As I explore this crossroads of cultures with Maya, my nine-year-old niece and the daughter of my late brother-in-law Frank, and my wife Nadia, Frank's sister, I find myself on a journey not just through Istanbul's history, but also into the depths of my own beliefs. Staying with Maya and her mother Elvan, my sister-in-law, I begin to see the city anew through their eyes, and to understand why James Baldwin said it "revived" him.
