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

La Vie en Rose

I'm dreaming of moments When I hold you in my arms And let you take me into places I've never been I'm wondering about places Where I'm lost in my thoughts Trying to figure out Games that you're playing "What a mysterious creature" I think Since you're gone When reality knocks in the room Then I wake up And realize You're here All the time I close my eyes And reach out my hands I feel you under my skin Makes me feel anything but thin "Don't be scared" I whisper in silence As I make my bed And la vie en rose Fills the air And I'm fully awaken Ready to fall in love with sunrise And sunset And with you

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."
