I do

I do believe in...

rain to shower the desert
snow hanging the tropical rim
sixty-first second of a minute
the eigth day of just a week
the thirteen month of just one year

I do comply with...

signs I dreamt last night
stitch I mend my clothes
string that splits my neck
nails that bruise my leg

I do...

I care what brought me down
I care what turned me on
I care what lifted me high
I care what blacked me out

I do...

commit to what you need
admit the things you bring
permit how treat you be
profit you start calling

I do...

Purple Heart


Kan mentari undurkan diri
masih kusisa senyum di hati
kan pelangi henti lingkari
bidadari tetap bernyanyi

Dewi malam tak kunjung salam
di ujung pantai tak kilau tiram
hembus bayu dalam temaram
tajam menusuk keras menghunjam

Satu warna beribu makna
enyah duka tengah melanda
kelebat sutra ungu merona
kibaskan lara sang semenjana
