It makes me melancholic, the person who has written this must suffer from an awfully broken heart.

dudu, if it's nothing personal can you say where you took this text from?

Please, treat my effort as a rough draft. I did it initially as a challenge but sort of got 'sucked in' by the pathos u know...and I'm not sure but there seem to be some grammatical mistakes in the original. I still cant get that '...ne kadar icine kapanırsam kapanayım kapandığım...olduğum mu?' line. No verb. Admin, HELP!

Medracer, in this sentence you asked about, the verb is re-used from the previous sentence. A simple translation should make it more clear:

Zaten ne yazılabilir ki senin adından başka? Eksilmek, yaşamak, gitmek, özlemek, ne kadar içine kapanırsam kapanayım kapandığım ölçüde dışarı açık olduğum mu?

What can be written except your name anyway? Diminishing, living, going, missing, or that the more I withdraw, the more extroverted I become?

Hmm...so simple when you sit back for a moment and look at the whole! The problem was, I spent so long pondering the 'Ne kadar...' falan bit, I completely forgot about the '...yazabilir...' in the previous sentence. I'll do better next time. Let's give this one 7/10. NEXT!

This could be something written by me....for my lost love. The words are so familiar to me, so painful...
Who is the author of this poignat, sad story?

Arogdoma, I'm sorry to hear that such a sad, painful story could also be yours. However, apparently you are not alone in your pain, there are people who feel the same way. Take care. I hope you're well.
