Identical Laces

I thought she was insane

I think my world is about to

I thought she was full of her self

I think the world insists

I thought she was villain

I think she was too hurt, so she rebelled

I thought she mumbled nonsense

I think she preserves her peace

I thought she was stubborn

I think she might be right

I thought I would never understand her

The fact I do

I thought she made reason and reasons

I think I made the same denial

I thought I would be nothing like her

I think I am wrong

She's what made her

What's hers resemble on me

We're just identical laces

Which jumbled in a massive and realistic slipknot

Bocah Lelaki Di Dirimu

Nostalgia beresonasi di balik tirai kenangan
Kisah membawa cinta untuk kembali hidup
Kau mempertanyakan rasa yang pernah berdiam
Kau bertanya seakan bingung dengan rasa mu sendiri

Berjalan pada sesal lama mu
Apa yang ada dalam benakmu?
Apa yang sedang terjadi?
Kau memutar sang waktu dan mengejar yang kusebut hantu masa lalu

Aku melihat bocah lelaki itu di dalam mu
Tersesat di balik punggung cermin-cermin semu
Kau melewatkan masa ketika itu adalah waktu mu
Kau ingin menggenggam kembali, namun seketika terlepas, menari, menjauh

Bermain di atas lidah api, apa yang kau coba lakukan?
Aku terhuni, tak ada ruang untuk nama mu
Kau mencubit hatiku di saat terakhir, dan meninggalkan memar
Kau datang kembali, kali ini dengan isyarat yang semakin melekat

Wahai peri cinta yang nakal, ayolah!
Ada apa denganmu!?
Berserapah dalam sekulum senyum
Tersadar, aku masih berdiri di bawah bayang mu

Forbidden Fetish

Abnormalities dominate 

When possessed by you 

Eyes nailed 

Heart bleeds

At The Brink of Limit

My Heart...

J-ar of hearts, kept in faint.

A-s a ghost of past lurk behind the rain.

I-solation of time changed everything, but heart remained the same.

L-osing identity in ego, time revived the old flame.

E-verything which wrapped, kept, was twirled in our quizzical caves

D-rifting upon the dreams, wondered if we still in the same waves

My Friend Named Silence

Uttered with no voice, not even a word

But all complaints opened to be heard

Dear solitude friend, Silence

You cope me by the blank page of your ambience

I cried and blared through your hollow space

Nothing you could do, but breathed the cold embrace

You gave me place in the moment of my disgrace

Where my heart could be truly honest on this messy pace

I was too hopeless in expressing the wounds which implied

Staggered with the conventional concept which justified

You could see but ain't judging the uneasy part of me

I never told anyone, but emptiness, you read me

Down by the concept of your sincere serenity

No complicated requirements, I danced light and free

I lean by the unseen barrier as you could see

The only ears for me to whisper is you, my clarity

Jump out from the corner of crowds

I gave you my face, the one with no drama, nor frauds

But only you could see the bad  shapes of my doubts

I skipped the melancholic through you in all odds

Unspoken

Lay upon the burden of lust
Love has forsaken a beat
Senses collide, but burn the wrong heat
Like a sneak motion amid the haze of dust
Lovers lost on egos' gust
Their mingled, tangled, chained souls howled for a freed
Hunger, fulfilled the cavity of their need
They're gambling on last remaining trust
Chasing heaven by trying to seek another solace
There, obsolete memories have caressed and be awaken
Aches echoed across the other place
Breathe in fantasy, their sins have spoken
Trapped within desires of disgrace
They poisoned their integrity upon the erroneous notions
