Grown Up Good Girl


Long long ago
I left her alone
In a dark room

She screamed
Longed for warmth
And sparks of light

Yet, I locked her there
As I tried to find my way
Somewhere over the sun
And beyond the stars

I spread my wings
Ready to soar
And roar my heart out

I thought I would
Never run out of fuel
Yet, I fell
One inch away from earth

"What's wrong?"
I said

"Take me with you,"
She said

"I can't. You weight my way up,"
I argued

"I'm more than wings and wind you need to fly."
She answered

"How come?"
I asked

"Your loved ones grew me long before you knew me."
She smiled

"Why?"

"Because I will keep that fire fuels your way up.

I will dance with you when everyone else ignore you.

And I will hold you and remind you of how good life is.

You will survive."

Senandung Cinta Ibu (1)

Teringat senandung cinta Ibu Kala aku lelap dalam peluknya "Anakku, kamu harus tahu Kamu sama sepertinya Hanya, jiwamu ditempa panas api Yang disebut sudut pandang" Aku tahu runcing sudut mataku Mengundang seribu julukan Atau terang warna kulitku  Buatmu tak merasa nyaman "Tak apa, nak" Kata Ibu "Kalau yang kamu tanam cinta kasih Jalan terus, meski tertatih" Langkahku berat Tersendat Banyak yang bilang aku gila Tapi kenapa? Karena aku memilih untuk berbeda? Keluar dari norma? Dan menjelajah? Lagipula, senandung Ibu selalu kuingat "... Jiwamu ditempa panas api Yang disebut sudut pandang..." Dan akupun melangkah Menapak api dan duri Kadang terhempas Namun bangkit kembali
