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.

adakah kamu mengartikanku?



kehilangan ini, apakah penawarnya?

ketika diri ini mencari-cari perhatianmu
adakah berjejak bagimu selama ini sapaku,
manjaku,
usikku?

adakah kamu mengartikanku
sedalam, sehangat, seindah,
sesering aku mengartikanmu?


kamu,
kamu membunuhku
pelan-pelan tapi pasti.

kamu,
aku jatuh
dan tahu bahwa kamu
tidak akan ada di bawah sana untuk menyokongku.
