++ Wonderful ++

Wouldn't it be wonderful?
If mankind becomes one;
No matter where you belong to,
Or which place you call home.

Whether you stand by the cross,
Or under the moon and the star,
Or on the lotus flower,
Or within the six-legged star.

If mankind stands side by side,
No war in the name of The One,
Nothing but the words of Peace,
And hearts that rest in contentment.

Wouldn't it be wonderful?

Ashburner Street, May 2012

" That day I hesitated,
Today I live in regret."

" Ask me to wait, for you to fly,
And you will have my Eternity. "

" That time my smile was not a mask,
I was in Peace, to be with you."

" You may leave me behind as you reach the sun,
But make me your resting place when you're worn out."

" Behind the smile that paints my face,
There is a girl in love with you."

" Home is where you are,
I find comfort in you."

" Since the first time we exchanged, 'Peace!',
I've found Peace in your company."

"I saw Eternity in you,
But you did not see it in me."

"Behind this quiet, gentle smile,
There is passion burning inside"

"I heard you speak of thousand dreams,
I want to make them all come true."

"One Lady, fills your fantasy,
That Lady, I will never be."

"One secret, I shall not reveal,
I've loved you, always and always."

"They come and go, as Time decrees,
But you will remain, now and then."

"As you search for your long lost Love,
I fell behind, and am bleeding."

"I wish the words, "Kun fayakun",
Were said for you and me, to be."

"It tastes like dark chocolate,
Bitter, yet intoxicating."

"If your Love I cannot have,
Let me have a share of your Pain."

++ Eternity ++

When the midnight sky no longer burnt,
And the City clamor faded into stillness,
'Twas the time when two souls met,
Whose eyes interlocked,
And fingers intertwined the other's.

Words were exchanged,
Thoughts were shared,
Hearts were unlocked,
Secrets were unveiled,
And dreams were written.

In that quietness of the night,
One could only wish,
That Time would melt into Eternity...

++ Nama ++

Sebelum kalian menduga hal-hal yang [tidak] diinginkan, tulisan ini bukan surat cinta :p.

***

Sang pujangga pernah menuliskan dengan penanya, “Apalah arti sebuah nama?”

Mungkin dia tidak tahu rasanya jatuh cinta pada sebuah nama. Tahukah, aku jatuh cinta pada namamu di kali pertama aku mendengarnya? Nama yang sederhana, bahkan biasa, namun aku tidak pernah bosan untuk mengucapkannya. Bahkan ketika engkau memintaku untuk memanggilmu dengan nama yang berbeda, karena sebagai seniman kata engkau memiliki nama pena, aku menolaknya. Karena bagiku, tiada yang lebih indah dari nama yang engkau punya.

Tahukah, karena namamu, kini padamu aku jatuh cinta? Namamu lah yang membuat wajahmu terbayang setiap kali aku mendengarnya. Namamu lah yang membuat jantungku bergetar setiap kali aku mengucapkannya. Namamu lah yang membuatku ingin menjadi sahabat hidupmu untuk selama-lamanya. Karena aku ingin memanggil namamu, dengan nada dan air muka yang berbeda-beda. Sedih, marah, kecewa, bahagia, dan mesra.

Walaupun akhirnya keinginan dan kenyataan adalah dua hal yang berbeda, aku akan tetap cinta. Walaupun suatu saat wajahmu buram dalam ingatanku, dalam hatiku namamu akan selalu berada – di tempat yang paling istimewa.
