Maria Sudibyo Poems

human are like puzzle
there's some part filling
and there's some part missing
so they can't help to fulfill each other
...

Critic is like knife
Whether slim, whether heavy
Whether long, whether short
Whether blunt, whether sharp
...

Story about future is called imagination
Story about past is called memories
Story about present is called reality
Story that becomes true is called prophecy
...

Bisa karena biasa
Bisa karena terpaksa
Bisa karena berkuasa
Bisa karena dewasa
...

It’s not a terrorist attack
It’s not a battle of war
It’s just an accident
...

Maybe you care or you just pretend to care
Or you only want to satisfy your curiosity
Or you only want to pity yourself
Or you only want to show up
...

In whisper, in shout
In silence, in echo
In heartbeat, in burning eyes
In strong arms, in delicate fingers
...

Like dream that definitely will end
Though now we laugh and shimmer with light
Someday going to wake up and realize it is just a dream
But it is still a beautiful dream
...

You can believe it as truth or just a fairy tale
You can accept it as ‘yes’ or else ‘no’
You can call it fair heart or maybe wise mind
You can hear it as compliment or otherwise humiliation
