Best Poems Written by Atik Nafisah

How hard? That's so hard

Blood is liquid
Blood clots are solid, but they are lumpy
How hard can it be to make it that hard?

Even stones can be eroded by water droplets
even steel can be melted by sparks
even concrete can rot due to air particles
even if God wills
A sturdy mountain is capable of collapsing
Earth pegs can be shaken
Heaven and hell can be destroyed
But whatever. Even God's will is flawless
How hard? Until it gets that hard?

Can time answer?
Will one mass plan?
While life time is mass
Is there a God who is responsible?
will one taste desire?
While their choices are not the same.

As far as I know, the coccyx bones are the hardest
That's the only part that's intact
From a decaying body.
Apparently not. Some are tougher.
The seeds of life will continue
And as hard as it is, it will come to life.

How hard? That's how hard it is. What's that?
A place where stone instantly becomes air
A place where steel instantly becomes liquid
The place where a wish is formed
The place where the will of feeling anchors
The place where the foundation of a mountain is formed
The place where the earth peg is anchored
A place where heaven and hell take shelter.
That's the heart. That's me.
