I am

From a city of seven hills and narrow streets
From Acıbadem of green streets 
With closely-located buildings with gardens and trees
From a street of stray cats and dogs with their peace

I am from a meticulous mother who rubbed olive oil on me 
and zestful father who wanted to wrestle with me
I am from a home of love, kindness, and passion
Laughing, talking, chatting, and kissing

I am from a family of comedians who worked hard
To make me laugh to feed me
With their gestures, jokes, laughters, and jumps, happily
Looking after me all collectively, lovingly, patiently

I am from a kindergarten of funny children, joyful toys, and endless play hours
Playing, climbing, dancing, singing, drawing, reading, chanting for hours but also,
Hitting, biting, beating, kicking, jumping from windows, and running away from the security
Being caught, punished, told off, warned
Being the hardest kid of them all, being unforgotten for my naughtiness 
But still feeling loved, protected, , missed, valued.



I am also from a family in love with red and yellow of the lion
Chanting, laughing, crying, shouting, jumping in competition
Training in there since as young as three
Feeling they owned almost part of me
It is big proud for me, 
Being captain of Galatasaray family,

I am from the early mornings, cold showers, hard trainings
Jumping into cold water at 4 am with a few others interestings
Pushing my body harder and tougher
Growing every day better and stronger
Feeling the cold water kissing my skin 
Swimming and swimming as if I had a fin
I am from an ambitious TEOG school of Bilfen with its hard work and endless tests
That has brought me into the a best school of Robert without rests,
Push me in Cornell University, which is one of the best ivy, to study the best of economy. 
I am a son, student, sportsman, captain, record holder, lover, champion…

I am Taylan Özgür Ercan
