Maria Sudibyo Poems

How many time wasted, how many
how many promises you said, to me
how many love I sacrificed, how many
how many scar scratched, my heart
...

I don't see the world so bright
I don't dream the hope so high
Indifference is just too much
I'm optimistic in disguise
...

I always love the man stands next to main character
because his dark hair or his sharp glare
or his cold attitude hiding his kindness
or his devilish smile when he is in trouble
...

God, may I be happy?
with what I own
with what I release
with what I hope
...

that is a word of sadness
it could never be forgotten once you hear it
though you don't understand what I said
your heart will feel it for you
...

why we have two ears that can't be naturally closed
but we less listening than talking
why we have one mouth that technically is not locked
but we speak nothing less than complaint
...

Keeping pain in silence
Keeping storm in vessel
Keeping question in action
Keeping ember in ruins
...

To identify, to define
To call, to remember
To referrer, to curse
What contained behind your name?
...
