Hi everybody,
I have just written a new poem for my Turkish lady Nesrin, would be intrested to read how it sounds in Turkish, there is no hurry with this translation I am just intrested to see how it looks reading it in Turkish. The reason behind the poem is we are always talking on MSN and so often we literally say the same words at the same time, so I feel the heading 'Soulmates' is the right heading. Have good day everyone

SOUL MATES

Our meeting was more than fate.
God knew you were my soul mate.
Your timing is never wrong.
Now we share a bond so strong.
Our time together means so much.
Each moment intensifies the need to touch.
Your love has reached my deepest soul.
Longing for you to daily hold.
May our love and need continuously grow.
Forever, LOVE, NEED, PASSION to each show.

Hi all,
With my trip fast approaching I am also meeting Nesrin's family for the first time also. I have learnt a little Turkish enough I hope for a small conversation I have bought her,her mum and her sister and nephew some presents from England and I hope all goes well with meeting her family. Do you think I should learn as much Turkish as I can before I go or will the fact that I learned at least a little will be good enough to welcome me, I am really nervous at meeting her family also. I have talked with her sister Nil and nephew Ali they like me and I just have to speak with Nes's mum I am so looking forward to it, it will be a new realations for both of us.

Hi,
Thanks everyone for your replies Mtlm, yes dear it is Istanbul I am going to the Esentepe area of Istanbul I am visiting in just under two weeks. Thanks for all your help with the supermarkets I will check all of them out.

Hi all,
With my trip fast approaching Nesrin has gave me some supermarkets to visit when I get there. I have a stomach problem IBS so I have to be careful what I eat I was looking for in particular Goat's milk Nes said we will have to find goat first I suppose I am a bit fussy eater but it is all down to my IBS. I just wondered if anyone can reccomend some good supermarkets in Turkey, they have a Tesco in Istanbul but it is quite a way from Nesrin's home.

Yes Aenigma
How are you? is everything okay, yes it is such a pity that Turkey are not there. Nesrin told me about the wonderful atmosphere in Istanbul when Liverpool played the Champions league final there and won there last year she said it was so nice to be amongst the english Liverpool fans in her city. I thought I was being a bit cheeky asking her already if I can watch some world cup games and was so relieved when she said we can watch them together

Hi all,
I am visiting my woman in Istanbul in the next couple of weeks and love my football I am a very big fan also is Nesrin who likes especially the international football I felt so bad for her when Switzerland nocked out Turkey in a play-off game I was really sorry for her, I have asked if I can watch some games while I am staying with her as I love football and I am half-german also so love to see Germany albeit the football stadiums only. Nesrin enjoys the football also so it will be very nice to sit and watch a game together

Hi,
Thanks so much everyone for the best wishes I will certainly tell all when I get back I am so looking forward to Istanbul being a place I regularly visit. It is so nice to share this love story on this website everyone I have talked to have been very nice and good to chat to
Best wishes all

Thanks Aenigma,
Yes this is my first ever visit I am very excited for many reasons, the lady I have corresponded to for nearly ten months we are finally going to meet Aenigma I am sorry I was not sure if I told you it was my first meeting of course I will report back and let you and everyone know
Best wishes

Hi all,
My first trip to Istanbul is fast approaching and I am so excited for two reasons one is meeting my lady Nesrin who I have been talking to for over nine months and the second is seeing Turkey for the first time. I am so lucky to have met a lovely lady Nesrin and this is the start of a new realtionship for both of us. I am happy to report back here with our story once I return

This is my love song dedicated and tried to sing to Nesrin

Bon Jovi Bed Of Roses

Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I dont know
cause a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
And some blond gave me nightmares
I think shes still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They wont make of me when Im dead

With an ironclad fist I wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
Its own beat in my head
While were talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and
What you mean to me
And the truth is baby youre all that I need

I want to lay you on a bed of roses
For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Well Im so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A kings ransom in dimes Id given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or its hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
Ill just close my eyes and whisper,
Baby blind love is true

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

The hotel bar hangover whiskeys gone dry
The barkeepers wigs crooked
And shes giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died

When you close your eyes
Know Ill be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonite I wont be alone
But you know that dont
Mean Im not lonely Ive got nothing to prove
For its you that Id die to defend

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
