No Story Poem by Maria Sudibyo

Tongues are tied, words are tight
Maybe it's better if we don't have story
And all laid in front of us are only facts
And your presence won't have great impact
Mind is frozen, heart is shaken
Maybe it's better if we lost our memory
And we could still sit down and drink coffee
Without thinking how to act happy

The dream is closed, haunting past the most
Maybe it's better if we don't have story
And all left written in books are only numbers
That nobody cares to learn and remember
For this stupid pride, we continue to fight
Maybe it's better if we don't get the glory
So we are not disappointed and crying secretly
When we are destroyed in history
