Astrid Hardjana Poems

Finding out who you are
Is continuous and never ending
It is filled with many questions
Provided with many answers
...

At times when things seem so distant,
Confidence disappears in an instant.
Questions begin to arise,
Questions wondering why you're alive.
...

I cannot thank you enough
For all that you have given
I can only hope to match
The love that you have given
...

It comes to me in different ways
Choosing different ways on different days
It controls me by making me mad
Often causing my spirit to be sad
...

In the continent of North America
We speed like race cars
In the Indy 500
...

In different ways to us it appears
But don’t be threatened by your fears
We have to use the power we own
Even if we feel alone
...

I don’t know how to share my thoughts
I don’t know how to sort my feelings
I only know that I don’t fit in
And it’s time to stop concealing
...

As frustrating as it can be
It has to be accepted as a part of me
Wherever I may want to go
It is something that will show
...

I look down at myself
So small and innocent
So responsible and mature
...

Every time I need you there
You’re always there to catch
The times that you need me
I promise to be your match
...
