Forever

Forgive me
Long forgotten
Have I to close the curtain
Now the dust of light
Enters the room it was
Where the scent stayed
And petals feasted upon the colors
Now, I am nowhere near

Close Your Eyes

There was the color of tree leafs

Strutting about its pompous green

Dancing closer and closer

Only to pull away mocking

Then came another, the color of fire

In a hurry, the red sat and stared

Into my eyes, it soothingly burnt

But again, pulled away mocking

Suddenly, a color of least expected

Approaching from the end of the tunnel

Growing and growing as it neared itself

Devouring all wishes for a plain view

Everything became blinding white

Only it too, in the end, pulled away mocking

A stranger no more, color of shadows came

Gave their embrace, until all was black

So black, I realized that my eyes

Have always been closed throughout

The dark is no stranger here, of course

Aku dan Cinta

Aku adalah pencinta yang tak kenal lelah
karena setiap lekuk tubuhmu
laksana setetes air dari oase
yang sirnakan dahaga si pengembara

Aku adalah pencinta yang egois
karena aku tak mau membagi
sumber mata air mu
kepada orang-orang lain

Aku adalah pencinta yang cengeng
karena aku kan selalu mendamba
tetesan air itu abadi
tak 'kan kering walau kemarau menerpa

Remember

Here I am
With you and the night clouds
The summer chill running past
Leaving us attached
To the caresses of yester eve
Caresses of stars shining afar
Appearing to be by my side
But senses say "Today is but yesterday."
For the warmth of your breath
No longer the soul mate of love
Only the dimming acquaintance
Of nostalgia's foolish longing

Silent Goodbye

I wished there were more

Never had enough

Of your soul within

This wreck of a heart

I still see your face

More and more each time

I fall asleep into dreams

Yes in my dreams

But like a setting sun

A goodbye was all I had

Held it in my hands

Didn’t want to let go

Now I am hollow

Because yesterday was done

Along with your cries and smiles

Left with only a dimming glimmer

Because I opened my hands

To let it fly away
