RANGKAIAN PERJALANAN MALAM

duhai pujangga memperistri malam
melangkah tak hendak dalam buaian
memejam tak payah pada alunan
... menelan ludah tak berkesudahan

lemah rantak bumi bergejolak
gemulai jemari menghujam awan
menghujat hari berhitung bulan
menghunus belati membelah mentari

wahai pujangga beristri rembulan
padang cahaya tertimpa bayang hitam
memohon tak juga bersuara
meminta tak pula menadahkan tangan

manalah hendak hati bercakap
diperkenankan namun tertawan
dipuja dalam belati di belakang badan
tertusuk manisnya permainan bintang

duhai pujangga yang disunting kata
kelelahan namun tiada sempat berkeringat
kehausan tiada sesiapa meneteskan embun
memandang dalam cahaya keheningan

rangkaian puja-puji telah membunuh ikatan nan sakral
membelah dunia dalam permainan
menohok hati pada bimbang
termabukan hentak tetarian kematian

labuhan perjalanan kian berliku pada persimpangan kehidupan nan bercabang

"Someone Like You"

I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, "
Yeah

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Yeah

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Yeah

Harapan 2012

Ingin sekali ku tebang tinggi,
meluapkan kebebasan..
menyanyikan luapan kegalauan...
menyampaikan harapan dengan suara lantang...

agar kau mendengar Tuhan...
apa yang aku inginkan...

Bukan, kehidupan yang nyaman stagnan yang aku inginkan..
bukan, bukan.. kehidupan yang apa adanya..

aku ingin tantangan baru..
memasuki kehidupan baru yang lebih meningkat.

tidak hanya sampai di sini Tuhan..

bukan karena aku tak bersyukur..
tapi ini bentuk rasa syukurku akan karunia otak yang Kau berikan..
