We used to be (original poetry) [day #5]

I miss our old one
In the morning we walk down the quiet alleys
Go to school at the end of our village
As we approach each other Sunday morning
Pick up one another to play the field of weeds
With our other friends

We laugh together
Play together
Looking for a low sparrow nest
For we take home his son
Playing kites
Pulled daylight
Until bathing in water times
In the middle of the rice fields of our village

I miss our old one
The afternoon with us kesurau
To review
Learn science for the afterlife later
All night we were together running
Penetrating pekatnya pitch
When not moon
Another thing at full moon, together we count the beets
Either the winner
The star blinked with applause
as if said
"You lose not able to count us"
That's what I miss
Miss our old one
When we plain innocent white innocent

in Indonesian

Kita yang dulu

Aku merindukan kita yang dulu
Saat pagi kita menyusuri lorong – lorong sepi
Menuju sekolah di ujung desa kita
Saat pagi minggu kita saling menghampiri
Menjemput satu sama lain untuk bermain dilapangan ilalang
Bersama kawan kita yang lain

Kita tertawa bersama
Bermain bersama
Mencari sarang pipit yang rendah
Untuk kita bawa pulang anaknya
Bermain layang – layang
Ditarik siang
Hingga bermandian di air kali
Di tengah persawahan desa kita

Aku merindukan kita yang dulu
Sore bersama kita kesurau
Untuk mengaji
Belajar ilmu untuk akhirat nanti
Pulang malam kita pun bersama berlarian
Menembus pekatnya gulita
Saat tak berbulan
Lain hal saat purnama, bersama kita menghitung bitang
Entah siapa pemenangnya
Bintangpun berkedip sambil tepuk tangan
Seakan berkata
“Kamu kalah tidak sanggup menghitung kami”
Italah yang aku rindukan
Merindukan kita yang dulu
Saat kita polos putih bersih tak berdosa
