Hope

In the smile of dawn, I woke up
Clouded was the day
And darkness fills in my eyes

Without stopping falling raindrops
And the breeze that tickles on my cheeks
Never cools me anymore.

Nothing to lose 
And nothing to own
Only the memories hold me alive.

Don’t know what to do.
And where will go.
My legs drag me somewhere.

Not clear my paths
Weird is my mission
Destiny tricks me every time.

Failure shatters me, but
Still hope shines in me 
Like a firefly.

I see and I remember
The rise in every fall
And the times I move ahead.

Not tired
Not dim
Hope glitters in me.

Little Things

I can see the stars shining 
beyond the pain of their flames
I can see the moon reflecting 
the whole love over its waning
I can see the river flowing
beneath its obstacles 
I can see the mountains growing
from the little grains unnoticed
I can see the waves rippling 
above its depths and downfalls
I can see the versions of me
in these whole little things

I Know, But I Don'T Know

I know who are you
But I don’t know who am I

I know the world
But I rarely know my family

I know the languages
But I don’t know what I speak

I know what others think
But I don't know about my thoughts

I can read all books
But I can’t read my mind

I travel all places
But I don’t know my way

I can see the light
But I didn't get the vision

I can hear the sounds
But I can' hear my voice

I study everything
But I don't know anything

I go churches
But I don't know God

I can write many stories
But I can’t rewrite my story

I know and I can
But I don't know and I can't.

My Love

The day we met, do you remember?
And you know the way we start.
We were friends when we met
Now who am I, a stranger who you forget?

I still remember
How we started talking.
I wonder how you can forget
The memories we bring together.

I write everything down
Every drops of your love you left me.
Will you be my story?
Let me complete it with you.


The time we spent so far
Thousand wonders happen to me
And the night we chat so long
Even now tingles on me.

We walk and talk
We ride and hide
And all those we shared
Made us what we were once.

How long we walked together
How close our hearts were.
How much leaves had fallen the way
And now I am alone in this way.

Let’s flow together anymore
Like a wave in the sea
Just wander in this beauty
And the beauty in you dissolves in me.

As we were best friends, you say
You acted it safe, I know
Something I won’t say
And nothing the words can’t express.

Can I love you?
Let me love you once
Give me one chance
Make me your choice.

When you with me
My skies are so bright.
You are my sunshine
And don’t ever fade away.

Every night we chat so far
How hardly I slept, you know.
And the moment you left me
Sleepless are my nights.

I never knew and I wonder
How this all happened to me.
And you’re a beautiful memory.
I treasured for so long.

Miss you, I miss you
I feel like missing you from me.
Nobody can feel like you
And everything completes in you.

Break up or break my heart.
I just don't care and happy
Ready, I’m ready
For what makes you happy.

I am leaving you now
Be my love next time.
End up everything with a word
And you don't hear my last word.

It's My Life

Oh. It’s my life 
Don’t compel me for anything
I’ll do what feels good for me
Leave me or lose me.

If you believe, you may don’t know 
Everything, everything is possible in this world.
And one thing you must know
You are more than you think.

I can and I will
Repeat and sing with me
I can and I will
You can and you win.

It’s easy to fly in the wind
Shout in the crowd.
And it’s easy for you everything
Everything you can and you will.

Walk in the rain, dance in the sunlight
Make the wind follow you
And don’t follow me either
You have your own way.

Oh. It’s my life 
I know how to have it, live it.
Leave me on my way
You have your own life, mind it.

Remind me when I go wrong
Hold my hand and show me
Show me the right way
Or let me go.

Let go and let’s go
The world may fall over you
Tease you, belittle you.
Never ever bother, and go on.

Go on and go through the storms
And you will get there
You’ll where you meant to be
Not where you want to be.

Be you and be strong
Be the happiness
Be the peace you’ll look everywhere
And be the love.

Love someone you don’t know.
And who doesn’t love you back
Never and ever expect anything
Life gives you more that you can’t hold.

Hold me and never let me go
Hold those hands that always care you.
I’ll let you go 
Walk away and don’t look back.

Tired and weary, just walk with your mind
Move on, you can do the best
Relax and forget the rest
Never ever give up.

Give everything, everything you have
You’ll never lose anything
No one is you
And that is your power.

Dead Poet

I'm dead 
by the deeds I never do
I'm toxic to the flower 
which bloomed from my roots 
I'm an expired soul
who took my heart as a whole 
I was torn away by the pieces 
which I picked to save  
I'm a dissected seed
to the plants I nurtured
I'm deceased
letting my words bleed eternally 
I'm a dead poet
singing my last breath
I'm dead and lost 
by living my heart to the fullest.

Love Exists

There was love
in my heart
Love to be happy
to be alone
to meet people
to travel alone

Afraid to be alone
Fear to be depressed
There is still love
love to be sad
love to be angry
love to be nothing
I love darkness
and I love the stillness

There was love
there is love
and love exists
in various forms..

Flowing River

I’m not a sun
who shines for you

I’m not a moon
who lits away your darkness

I’m not a star
brighten your sky

I’m not a flower
which smells beauty

I’m a river
a river full of love
And I reflect all of these for you. !
