Translation
English

I, who drew my roads towards you, steeped in my heart the things that were in my mind.

Lilian when I looked "to steep" in dictionary, I saw that also "to steep" means " to wet,to damped".
the equivalent of "demlemek": to steep, to brew
It can have so a meaning:" I wet with my tears the things which are in my mind, in my heart " This is it's explanation, not the translation.

What about this?

"I, who drew my roads towards you, plunged in my heart the things that were in my mind."

Thanks Lilian,it is clearer when you changed the places of words, but I think that the translation must respect the meaning of the original text. So, How is this?
"I, who drew my roads towards you, steeped in my heart the things which/that were in my mind.

Ok, if you insist with "steep"...
That sounds really awkward in English, though.
We can set a poll and see what other people think.

Ok Lilian, I insist with "steep" because I looked up two dictionary and there were only two equivalent: to steep, to brew
If they can't be, maybe "to wet" can be
