embun

rapuh,
seperti embun yang mengembang di pagi hari.

lembut,
seperti kabut yang melayang di pekat pagi.

segar,
seperti embun yang menggelinjang di dedaunan sunyi.

misteri,
seperti kabut yang menutup segalanya.

dan cintamu,
kan kujaga...selama kubisa.

kerapuhannya,
kelembutannya,
kesegaran yang dibawanya,
misteri keberadaannya,
....... bagaikan embun bagi pagi-pagi jiwaku.....

untukmu,
selamanya,
takkan pernah kulupa.

in your eyes

in your eyes,
i see a better me,

a reflection of love,
compassion,
passion,
patience,
affection,
strength,
honesty.

in you eyes,
i see a prettier me.

a picture of beauty,
intelligence,
knowledge,
wisdom,
experience.

in your eyes,
i see a stronger me.

a vision of adventure,
challenges,
opportunities,
bravery,
independence.

in your eyes,
i see perfection.

the ups and downs,
the strengths and weaknesses,
the frailty and stubbornness,
the dreams and illusions,
the obsessions and realities,
all the shortcomings that made me what I am.

in my eyes,
I see You.

and the Perfection that is You.

and hope,
that you see it, too.

dedicated to the Rowdy one :p

die Kerze

Let it burn,
Let it burn,
Let it burn until the end,
Until all the wax has melted,
And the wick turns withered and black.

Let it burn,
Let it burn,
Let it burn until the end,
Until the drops of hot wax burn your skin,
And makes you wince with pain.

Let it burn,
Let it burn,
Let it burn bright,
Let it burn fast.

Let it burn,
The way I’d burn for a desire to live,
And live life,
Live life to the fullest.

footwork

Dance with me.

Let the rhythm enters your soul.

Free you heart.


Dance with me.
Hold my hands and don’t let go.
Touch my back and leave your hands there.


Dance with me.
And let the music carry us away.
To the land of passion and energy.


Dance with me.
Watch me sway for you.
Move with me and lead me away.


Dance with me.

Let your feet roam free.

Watch me smile for you.

Move for you.

And dance with me.


Just dance with me.

the boy with hazel eyes

and the boy with hazel eyes falls asleep,
in the arms of his guardian angel,
soft, warm, protected from the world.

and the boy with hazel eyes opens his big heart,
to a world of wonder, and love and anticipation.

and the boy with hazel eyes no longer fears himself,
for himself is the first he should love,
and cherish,
and respect,
until the end of times.

and the boy with hazel eyes looks at his guardian angel,
and asks her,
'why do i feel pain?'

she answers,
'because of your big heart, my boy...
because you take the pain and make it yours...'

and the boy with hazel eyes cries....
pouring his heart out in her arms.

and she held him, she held him...
she held him....
until moments became eternity...
and the world melted into one.

and as she disappeared like a morning fog giving away to the sun,
he heard her say,
'you have such a great heart, my boy with hazel eyes,
and i feel your pain...
but fear not,
for my arms will always be there...
wherever you are.'
