Maria Sudibyo Poems

A long time ago
The world seemed so wide and wild
Until we fear we will never meet again before we say goodbye
...

You give me your brightest smile
Your hands are warm to mine
It is almost a perfect romance
But I'm just the surrogate
...

Your flame, my flame
Who's gonna be burnt first?
Fire inside, fire outside
Who's gonna turn into ashes?
...

The date is noted
But it is not for me
The flower is bought
But it is not for me
...

Even though there is no fixed law
Even though there is no certain punishment
Even though there is no direct proof
Even though there is no blood violation
...

Just stay a little longer
For this heartbreaking warmth
Take a deep breath until the scent is no more
Stay a little longer
...

The one who becomes a dangerous man
Is not the one who only has one single determination
Not the one who destroys every single thing who crosses his path
But the one who doesn't have any single thing that he is so eager to do
...

I don't want to lie
But how to tell you the truth
I should talk to you from beginning
Still how to tell you the truth
...

Bright and clear blue sky
Running outside be bathed by warm sun
All in mercy of God
...
