about a girl

A grandfather was walking through his yard when he heard his granddaughter repeating the alphabet in a tone of voice that sounded like a prayer. He asked her what she was doing. The little girl explained: "I'm praying, but I can't think of exactly the right words, so I'm just saying all the letters, and God will put them together for me, because He knows what I'm thinking." -Charles B.

semudah itukah?

di manakah kamu? di mana rasaku?
di manakah luka itu? marah itu?


[hari ini, satu setengah tahun kemudian]
kucari-cari semua itu di kepalaku, di hatiku,
di aliran darahku, di detak jantungku


[hari ini, satu setengah tahun kemudian]
kutemukan kosong
kulihat datar
kudengar sunyi
kupikir "semudah itukah?"




lawan dari cinta bukanlah benci,
melainkan tidak peduli -anonymous-
