Best Poems Written by Ratu Goblok

The Years of Longing

You were like the rhythm of Mozart in the silence
As the rain you were pouring on the arid land
Like the rainbow in the sky, it's your heart
I was so wrong, i didn't know you  that well

You were like the sound of melodious birds
As the safest land in Asia, it's your hand
Like the sun shine in the morning, it's your smile
I was  blind,  I  couldn't see you that well

My heart  filled with thorns when i had you
The Shadow of the past hindered my eyes
There's always a place in my heart, you said
Now, I can see you well since you've been gone

If there is still a piece of yarn in your hand
Would you like to give it to me once again
So I can try to sew the broken cloth I've made
Because I put it on fire in the dry season

if nothing left,  the last broken thread though
I will try to stand up, brushed off this pain
I'll remove the chain that brought me to you
So I can say good bye to the nights of yearning
