XX

Sepetang lalu,

Waktu ku bersiar di susur pejalan kaki ini,

10 tahun yang dahulu itu,

Kembali  sejenak.

Tak ku sangka bahu yang ku langgar itu rupanya

Kekasihmu,

Masih sempat untuk bertukar renungan,

Seperti dejavu,

Wajah itu pernah ku kenali dahulu.

Masih sempat berbalas senyuman,

Adakah kau masih akan toleh padaku

Setelah kita berlalu pergi ?

Belum sempatku mengatur langkah,

Kau sapaku dan menghulur sekeping kertas.

Petang itu yang masih sayup,

Ditiup angin bayu,

Bagai membawaku mengimbau waktu lalu,

Waktu kau masih ku empunya.

Sambilku berjalan melihat kertas itu,

Ku sangkakan nombor telefonmu yang tertera di situ,

Membelek ku tanpa rasa sangsi,

Ia berbunyi.

“masih adakah sayang dalam mu?”

Ku senyum berlalu pergi.

BLACK SHEEP

Baa Baa black sheep,

Have you any wool?

Since he asked,

Repeated through seemless times,

Aren’t we curious.

Yes, sir.

3 bags full.

There’s he goes again,

Again and again,

Abracadabra,

Are we still consuming all the hype?

In the absence of truth there is nothing but falsehood,

And yes we are all being arrogant,

Bastard arrogant.

1 for the master’s,

1 for the dame’s,

And 1 for the kids who lives down the lane.

We seems look-up for equality,

But we actually forgot the equity are far beyond better,

And yes,

We still being arrogant,

Ignorance,

Selfish, bastard.

Baa baa black sheep,

Have you any wool?

Bastard.

Hey Beautiful

To forget,

And being legit,

It is hard for me to get it.

Being respectful,

Is Forgetful,

They told me im being a fool.

Its been long,

How can i be wrong,

You’re beautiful and i cant be long.

Time is always there,

Reminiscing shit and my brain is sick,

Thinking of you are being mine is doubtful sins,

And it making me sing.

Oh la la la la la oh la la la la.

Waktu tenang

Ya, Aku egois,

Ingin terus aku kikiskan fitur durjanaku ini,

Tetapi bagaimana?

Berubah seolah-olah tunduk kepuraan,

Tidak akan kekal sifat tu.

Berikanlah aku masa,

Untuk aku memperhalusi idiosinkrasiku ini.

Bukan mudah untuk kau takluki jiwa ini,

Kau hanya manusia yang bole mati jika ku tikam,

Sebagaimana kau akan menikam kelak,

Hanya Allah jiwaku serahkan,

Bukan padamu yang berpura keagungan.

Berikanlah aku masa,

Seolah masa itu sindiran untuk binasa diriku.

Ya, sememangnya aku egois,

Bukan kerana untuk aku menang,

Tetapi untuk aku melindungi harta nurani.

Apophenia

Stared through the window,

While hoping there’s a glimpsed of heavenward lights.

Through endless time and space passed by,

The vision hallucinates confusing the brain,

Losing all the axis.

Suddenly,

I was alone in the dark of the universe,

Then, I looked up.

I saw a lot of strings attached to every inch of my body,

And it moved by itself.

Forcing me to walked towards the darkness,

And I thought, this could be the chance to get out of the misery.

Heavy burden upon my head,

All my muscle stressed out,

Too tired to thinks, too tired to define.

My eyes shut.

A stink odor went caught in my breath,

Make me felt like choke to death,

And all of sudden,

I hear voices all around me,

I’ll tried to open my eyes,

But the light are so dense and bright,

Nullify my vision to capture surround me.

Then, I heard a strong voice,

going right through my auditory canal boldly,

He said  “Get up! You are fuck up.”

The Forgotten hero

Day by day passes,
People tend to go forwards,
Claimed whatever desired, they want to,
Soon they will forget everything.

Everything that, was once held us as whole,
As a band of brothers, stands side by side,
While holding hands, smile at the glittering dreams,
That was once we want it so much to build.

Nothing but a memory of a person,
drowned in a lake of temptation.

We will soon forget the hero,
Who was once inspired us to challenge the odds,
Heroes that brings us to victory,
But he died in the middle of glorious crusade.

Soon we also will be forgotten as we did right now today.
He will probably smiled or cried,
No one knows,
Because he is the forgotten hero.

Kalaulah Aku

Mati itu pasti,
Tiada apa yang boleh kita ubah,
Alangkah bagus pada tika ini kita bersyukur dan menghargainya.

Kalaulah aku,
Boleh ubah waktu-waktu lalu,
Pastinya aku berbuat baik dengan penuh kasih sayang,
Setiap tuturcara kataku lebih halus dan penuh cinta,
Sebelum dia hilang seperti titik noktah.

Kalaulah aku,
Diberi kebijaksanaan seperti hari ini,
Pasti senyumanku lebih lebar dan ikhlas,
Setiap sapaan kalian pastiku sambut dengan tangan yang lebar luas untuk memeluk kamu.

Kalaulah aku,
Masih seperti ini untuk waktu dulu,
Sudah pasti tak ramai tersinggung dengan peradabanku.
Dunia ini pasti lebih nyaman walaupun bukan di dalam belantara.

Kalaulah aku,
Masih mencintaimu,
Maafkan aku,
Caraku mungkin kasar,
Tapi hatiku masih lembut dan selesa untuk kamu duduki.

Kalaulah aku.
