Praise Sheet

My hands are heavy ...
I reluctantly swung
Pouring desire and wishful thinking
In every sentence implied ...

I started with the point ...
Go to the line, string the alphabet
Start with the alphabet
Towards the word stringing sentences ...

New confesser swung ...
My card is not loaded yet
Lines and lines are still empty
So the task that I have to ...

I fill with poetry ...
My verse about taste
I wrote with poetry
My poem of hope
All stored neatly in my sheet ...

Though the sheet is outdated ...
Even though the sheet has been rummaged
But it is precious to me
Because of all my desires and races
Written and stored intact and neat
Without missing a single line in each line ....

Lembaran Berhargaku

Tanganku serasa berat...
Kuayunkan dengan enggan
Menuang hasrat serta angan
Dalam tiap kalimat tersirat...

Kumulai dengan titik...
Menuju garis,merangkai abjat
Kumulai dengan abjat
Menuju kata merangkai kalimat...

Penaku baru kuayunkan...
Kertasku belum terisi
Baris dan garis masih hampa
Jadi tugas yang harus kuemban...

Kuisi dengan syair...
Syairku tentang rasa
Kutulis dengan sajak
Sajakku tentang asa
Semua tersimpan rapih dalam lembaranku...

Walau lembar itu telah usang...
Walau lembar itu telah mngusut
Namun sangat berharga bagiku
Karena semua asa dan rasaku
Tertulis dan tersimpan utuh dan rapih
Tanpa hilang sekatapun dalam tiap barisnya....
