Sepasang Insan Bisu

Sepasang insan bisu 

Angin sekali kali menghampiri
Tepat ke arah dua insan bisu di meja cokelat tua yang biasa saja
Empat penghuni terhormat belum tiba juga, 
Seperti sengaja membiarkan kedua orang bisu belajar berbicara

Lengan pria diatas meja menutupi sesuatu yang sedang dilihatnya
Punggung wanita bersandar dengan rasa kesal penasaran
Keduanya sedang liar dalam kegiatan yang tak diketahui 
Terjadi dalam otak berharga mereka

Angin menerpa seakan berbicara menyuruh seorang insan mulai berlatih berkata
Akhirnya pria jangkung lakukan
Hanya sebuah kata yang bisa dimatikan oleh wanita

Terdiam beribu abad
Gadis ber-iris cokelat tua pun lakukan
Kata dengan rasa empati, penasaran, kasih sayang dan sedikit amarah yang kontras
Tapi pria jangkung bodoh

Kepalanya mengarah ke gadis, menatap matanya
Dan menganggukannya sedikit
Berdehem mengakhiri bahasanya

Gadis yang ditangannya terdapat buku tebal memaki dalam hati

"Pria bodoh"

Lalu otaknya Menyuruhnya berjanji

"Jangan lagi" 

Hatinya mengeluhkan

"Kita telah dihina, buang dia"

Tubuh gadis itu pun tegak 
Tak ada desiran darah lagi untuk pria bodoh

Seluruh bagian dari gadis itu sekarang membenarkan ucapan gadis pada temannya setiap saat

"Cari yang pintar"

Trapped in you

TRAPPED IN YOU You sweetened me, sank into my soul, read me like a prophecy I hate this. I hate you. I was there— when you said you needed me, when my world was burning, I made time, carved it from my own bones, and handed it to you like an offering. You swore you'd always be here. No matter what. No matter what the fuck. But here I am, talking to ghosts, watching you spoil the only thing you ever truly loved— your own damn ego. You spoke of effort, as if effort is a word you understand, as if the weight of my waiting isn’t breaking my spine. You wondered if you were enough. Yes, sir. Yes. You are not. I am not too much— you are too little. You ranted, and I listened. I held my tongue, swallowed my needs. You never did the same. You were mean—sharp-edged, careless. I hope your fingers burn, a slow, cruel sting if you ever type other name while ignoring mine. And I hope you tell me, whine to me about the pain, so I can say, good. Was that love? Or just comfort? Did I mistake patienc...

Nowhere Lake

  The sun was setting, but not yet dark Through clouds of grey, it cast a spark The water flowed and screeched, with little waves that splashed I put my hand in, merged with water, felt a flash I could see you, I could feel you In the realm beyond They said no human had the power To cross the world you're on They said that nature had the vision To sense the other side So I want to become like the nature I let myself subside Merged myself into the water,  buried half my body into the rough sand Soaked myself into the mud,  climbed the peak because watch griev to the land All I did All I do Because I can't see you As you can see me

The Life That Died Before It Lived

The Life That Died Before It Lived You were never here And yet, I feel you everywhere. Like a ghost pressing against my ribs, like a breath I keep holding, like a name caught at the edge of my tongue that no one will ever hear Somewhere, there is a cabin we never stepped inside, where dust settles on a bed we never shared, where the windows watch the seasons change, but no one is there to see them The river still runs The trees still stand The world goes on, untouched by the absence of us Somewhere, there is a wedding that never happened. A song that plays for no one. No hands to hold, no whispered vows, no trembling voices saying forever. Somewhere, there is a girl in a white dress, standing in an empty room, waiting for a door to open, for someone who will never come. Somewhere, there is a life where we meet. Where I know the warmth of your hands, the weight of your head on my shoulder, the sound of your voice when you are not pixels on a screen. A life where I don’t have to imagine ...
