Alexander Foald Poems

Cast in an island
Far away from one’s conscious mind
Isolated in somewhere with no one
Lonesome man drifted by the ocean
...

Pelangi tanpa warna di ujung mata
Terdiam dalam setengah lingkaran
Menatap sepi jalan setapak di kaki bukit
Menunggu tak pasti akan menepinya waktu
...

At such a long range
I wish I can lengthen the signal
To wherever you are, listen to me
This is not a rehearsal
...

What is your smile made from?

Because it’s too bright to match the sun in summer
And too sweet even honey can’t compare
...

Something beneath the milky way of stars
Hid by the clouds, spun along with the tides
Named the same as those people in loving memory
Awaits by the light, turning over the night sky
...

A night so cold and sour, inside the palm of my hand
But it’s summer and winter, when you take it over
A day so long and patient, deliberate outright the logical term
But it’s furious and mad car, as you pull it altogether
...

Lover, go back to your bed
Stop talking and sleep well
Let dreams come into your head
And put your heart under the spell
...

Around the corner of this sky
The dawn is breaking, a day is born
Leaving all the bad things behind
In a page that is ready to be torn
...

A different night at a different place
A different expression from a different face
A different situation in a different space
A different confusion by a different daze
...

A breezy wind blows through the empty spaced road
No one here but me and few lonesome lights on the sidewalks
Thinking that the night is coming by next to this side of the city
I wrap myself inside the coat and rush ahead
...
