Maria Sudibyo Poems

When you only win your own feeling
Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself
When you only suffer with your pain
Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself
...

What is left after the fire burns all
The smoke, the pile of dust
And the blackened ruin
The smoke blown, the dust swept
...

I forget my hunger with reading
I forget my scar with loving
I forget my burden with dancing
I forget my sorrow with singing
...

If faithful, get ready to be compared
If different, get ready to be criticized
It's hard to please everyone
...

Because I believe that every morning God’s new
That He creates the world right at this time
And not in the past dark blind and forgotten
So every time I must welcome Him
...

pernah kulihat tanpa terkenang
pernah kutahan sebatas sayang
rinduku tuk dibelai hilang
oh, mengapa nasib dirundung malang
...

what I dream is a piece of work
what I hope is one love
close my hands and pray
...
