apa yang akau lakukan padaku saat ini?
aku semakin tak mengerti apa yang kau ingini
kau siksa aku dengan permainan hatimu
kau adu hatiku dengan
tega perasaanmu lakukan itu

saat ini
aku menunggu dirimu
sampai kapanpun aku menunggu
berdiri tegar menantimu
mencoba setia dengan hati penuh luka

jika kau memang ingin memilihku
pilihlah aku
jika kau ingin memilihnya,
pilihlah dia

 

Paijo Dan Jakarta

Jakarta…

Rimba pekat penuh bisa

Diselimuti gedung megah

Dibayangi harta melimpah

Paijo tertegun terpana

Ditanggalkannya cangkul di sawah

Disisihkannya istri di rumah

Terbuai rayuan manis Jakarta

Gitar di tangan kanan

Kantong plastik di tangan kiri

Terhempas impian yang pernah melekat

Tinggal bayang-bayang temani sunyi

Jakarta layaknya wanita

Wajah dan hati sering berbeda

Saling makan saling tendang

Hanya itu kenyataan yang ada

Kini…

Dalam kerumunan bocah bertelanjang kaki

Di atas pematang sawah

Di tengah hamparan padi

Paijo ungkapkan tabir Jakarta

 

Tinggal Sunyi menatap Bulan
Cahaya gelap membelai wajahku
kian lama kau jauh

hamparan bintang di tanah langit
menghilang dari gapaian
tidak ada harapan.....

aku mulai tersenyum
satu bintang terbesar
satu bintang bersinar
putus asa sirna dari tubuhku
kau adalah bintang impianku

By Yogie Stefanus

 

Way

After dropped my last tears at the moment
I decided, I won't crying anymore
Though these days are irritating
It's not the main reason I'm crying

The curtain that hides my true self
Is now opened without any sign
I can feel the warming light now
My translucent heart is shining brightly

I hope I can change every drops of tears
Become a sparkles precious jewel
I will show it to you someday

Maybe everyone has their own illusion
That's why mistakes sometimes occurred
After all we're just an imperfect creature

There is no more smile if i keep standing here
I decided, i have to go even if I'm alone
Though my destination is still unclear

The vibrant future is calling me
Now I have to go without holding back anymore
Just for now I don't want to look back and I want to ask
"Does this voice reach you?"

 

hari itu ku coba rangakaikan
serpihan-serpihan mimpi tentangmu
yang telah kau rajut di ujung senja
diantara sisa-sisa hari yang merayap resah
ku dekap sejumput rasa yang pernah kau torehkan pada denyut nadi ku

jalan ini masih terlihat sama, kotor dan berdebu
malam ini pun masih terlihat sama, gelap dan pengap
cuma tanpa obrolan membosankan antara kau dan aku....

Baal

Tak peduli terhadap matinya aliran darah
Rasa itu mati dan menjalar
Tak terasa tetap diam dan melakukan yang sama
Sifatnya beracun bagaikan ular

Akhirnya menyentuh tanah
Tapi tak bisa merasakan
Yang dirasakan hanya dingin
Seperti dinginnya es

Perlahan aliran itu kembali
Sakit yang tak tertahankan pun terjadi
Ingin ditarik lagi kembali
Tapi tak sanggup dan tidak berani

End of Line

There is a line
Maybe so many lines

We are whether walking or running on that line
And we cannot stay forever on that line

When we reach the end of line
Another line will be revealed

When we still don't know why a line will meet an end
An example will be showed

There is a line
Maybe just a beginning for another line

We are keep processing
And we cannot back in time

Whether regret or not
Another line will be revealed

Whether stay on the path or not
An end is absolute

There is a beginning
Meet an end in the end

 

Tanahku Masih Basah

Tanahku masih basah
Kemarin hujan mendera
Menyisakan lumpur
Tanahku masih basah
Belum tuntas jadi sengketa
Antara moyangku dengan penguasa
Tanahku masih basah
Tapi rumput pun tak tumbuh
Dan cacing pun mati kering
Tanahku masih basah
Entah sampai kapan
Mungkin kelak ajalku tiba

 

Suram Jogjaku Kini

Pagi kembali jadi luka
Menyayat dalam keheningan lara
Meluruh lantah semua warna
Merajut duka tanpa praduga
Suram Jogjaku kini
Tanpa senyum menghiasi hati
Seluruh peluh menjadi abu
Seluruh haru mendekap kalbu
Kini waktu kita kembali
Meniti hati dan juga diri
Biar sudah murka Pencipta
Biar bahagia kotaku Jogja

 

Meeting at Night

The gray sea and the long black land;
And the yellow half-moon large and low;
And the startled little waves that leap
In fiery ringlets from their sleep,
As I gain the cove with pushing prow,
And quench its speed i' the slushy sand.

Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach;
Three fields to cross till a farm appears;
A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch
And blue spurt of a lighted match,
And a voice less loud, through its joys and fears,
Than the two hearts beating each to each!

-Robert Browning

Hey, the rain is coming!

They are coming so fast

Behind my window, seeing them falling to the ground
Inside my chamber, hearing the thunderbolts are coming

Yes, they come for us

Watching them can cheer me up
Feeling their cold can heat me up

They heckle me by dancing
Spinning around in the air

Then, they dive to the soil

They are just too pretty to be missed

Yes, they are the rain

And, it is such a pleasure to enjoy their coming

They are extremely wonderful

 

Memories Of That Day

The night was so dark
The rain was too heavy
I can't even see the stars that night

I wish i won't meet this pain anymore
Because things are going so fast recently
There are too many conclusions and reasons

What would you think about me now?
What would i think about you now?
You see, i don't want to escape from this one

I don't want to cry
Because i have to end the disguise soon
I keep up all of your feelings without tears
You keep up all of your feelings without smile

I don't know if my heart is already ruined
You don't know if your heart is already healed
I always trying to smile pretending to be okay
Even the fact isn't always like that

I think i find someone who was treats and serves me better
I want to said that i'm happy with that
But if i didn't end the disguise soon
I'm just remake another disguises after all

Now, i'm realized that everything is going to be alright
If i'm not sacrifices something to get other along well
Things are go better and everything can get along well

I want to cry
Because i've already end the disguise
I keep up all of your feelings with smile
You keep up all of your feelings without tears

 

Metaphors

I'm a riddle in nine syllables,
An elephant, a ponderous house,
A melon strolling on two tendrills.
O red fruit, ivory, fine timbers!
This loaf's big with its yeasty rising.
Money's new-minted in this fast purse.
I'm means, a stage, a cow in calf.
I've eaten a bag of green apples,
Boarded the train there's no getting off.

-Sylvia Plath

Simpati

Kusimpati
Tapi sebenarnya tak mengerti
Kusadari
Tak selamanya kau akan begini

Sudahlah berhenti
Jangan sedih lagi
Sakit juga nanti hati ini
Jangan lebih dari ini

The Letter to North and South

I am writing a letter to my North and South

It is a scene of life cycle of us
We always met five times a day within a sacred hall
And we always talked about hope and wishes,
Admires Thou every breath since we are gratefully thanked
The composure of Thy present always covers me with smile and tears,
No matter what happened, what has just happened and what is going to happen,
We never missed the meeting, not once.
Until I wrote Thou this letter
We are rarely met lately,
I don't know what happen to me, but it seems like we now get far away,
It is not five times, but sometime only three or four times a day
Did I forget Thou?
No, I guess or yes I did so,
I am lost in a lust, hearing your voice, "She is a betrayer!"
Hurts me so, but this is it, Thou caught me false and sinful
I know Thou always wait for me in the same place everyday, but no presence of me then,
What's left?
Believing in Thou is like a food to my flickering heart and soul,
I am lost and I am losing Thou
Forgive me for all unforgivable
Please, wait me in that place every five times a day,
My oath will never let Thou be there without me,
My oath that makes Thou stay and put Thy hand out to me,
Now, it's not only hope nor wishes, but devil and angel, forgiveness and unforgivable, oath, promises, swear within a sacred hall of me to Thou, truthfully remorse of me,
Never close my heart by thy endorse and let me into the place where we used to resonance every single verse, praises of the blessing bliss
Splash me with the purity verse of Thy,
I beg Thou to stay forever and don't let me go again,
Would Thou mind give me a chance so we could be like we were?

For I am writing a letter to my North and South

Nb untuk puisi trakhir:
Gw masih sering lupa solat..

 

Harapanku

Malam ini ketika Tuhan membuka pintu harapan.
Dia berkata : "Apa harapanmu?"
Q jawab : Jaga, Lindungi & Cintai orang yg slalu ada dlm hidupku.

 

Hitam sunyi

Sepasang mata menengadah
Menaruh harap kepada awan
Sampaikan rasaku kepada bulan
Walau tak kan bisa
Dan burung hantu bernyanyi
Bersama hitam yang sunyi
Dan awan yang menari
Merebah dalam imaje
Akankah waktu berulang
Sebelum waktu memanggil pulang
Dengan wajah kusam ku berlayar
Mengarungi gelapnya malam

 

When my love swears that she is made of truth

When my mistress swears that she is faithful
I do believe her, though I know she lies,
That she might think I am some inexperienced youth,
Ignorant of all the deceit that exists in the world.
Thus foolishly thinking that I am still young,
Although she knows that my best days are behind me,
Foolishly I give credit to the untruths she tells about me;
So that both of us are supressing the ugly truth.
But why does she not tell me that she is unfaithful?
And why do I not admit that I am old?
O, love's best disguise is the pretence of truth,
And older lovers do not like to have their age pointed out:
That is why I lie to her and she to me,
And the lies we tell each other help us forget our respective faults

-William Shakespeare

 

aku pembenci !

buas ..
lIar ..
yang kini ada padaku ..

bodoh ..
tolol ..
apa yang sudah menjadi abadi dalam kepalaku ..

aneh .. aneh .. aneh ..
aku akui itu ..
jika memang itu yang bisa kau katakan padaku ..

aku telah bebaskan jiwa yang terbangun ..
dari hatiku , tak mampu kuredam lagi ..
karna waktuku tlah habis menjaganya tetap tertidur dalam mimpinya ..

akulah jiwa itu , jiwa yang sepi dan penuh kebencian !
berpikir tentang dosa , tiada lagi yang kutakutkan ..
apalagi seseorang yang selalu menyentuh dalam-dalam hatiku ..

kan kubiarkan benci itu membalut semua luka ..
dan kan kulepaskan jiwa ini bernaung lekat saat mata ini menatapmu ..
dan pasti larut pada Hatimu ..

lihat mataku , akan kau rasakan untuk membenciku ..
kau takkan mampu berlari , hingga langkahmu terhenti ..

jangan bertanya mengapa aku menjadi seperti ini ..
karena smua ini terbentuk dari hari-hari yang kau jalani ..
dan harapan yang hanya akan kau gantungkan ..

jika ketakutan itu telah merasukimu ..
tumbuh dan berkembanglah benih kebencian yang kutitipkan padamu ..

 

Walk This Way

The dazzling sun seems brighter than usual
I can feel the voice of nature calling me
No matter how I go to another direction
The voice will guide me to the next destination

The footsteps that I made leaving my past behind
The falling leaves as the wind blows is a sign for me
Everything I do, wouldn't always smooth as you can see
I continue to walk on this endless winding road

Did you remember?
When the stars isn't sparkling
I might be crying and she will lost her feeling

As deep as the ocean, As blue as the ocean
The blue sky always able to see
Close your eyes and you will understand

Didn't you remember?
When the stars are shining
She is crying for something inside me

Daybreak hasn't come yet,
Moonlight hasn't appear yet,
But why my memories are fading?

Why I can't remember anything?
Though I just want to recalling
Before the world stops spinning
I want to be stronger without crying

 

sunyiku dalam penantian sebuah nama
bernyanyilah dalam sukma
jiwa jiwa yg mati telah menari nari dalam otak
memaksa tangan dan kaki dan mata untuk berontak

huh makiku pada dunia
berjalan pada cinta dan fitnah belaka
makian untuk tetap hadir dalam waktu
celaan untuk tetap mati seperti babu

aku ada!! teriakku pada tuan
aku hidup!! dengar kan nafas dan detak jantung
sayang...tuan tak punya hati..

 

Tak Usah Galau

telah kuraih bintang
telah kurengkuh matahari
meski bukan yang tertinggi
yang ada dlm hatimu
maka,
biarlah aku tetap disini
....
Tak Usah Galau
jika langkah kita memang berbeda,
tak apaa ...

 

Bulan, coklat dan keju…..
Adalah sepotong mimpi yang berenang diatas laut malam
Laut malam yang hitam tapi manis
Bahkan lebih manis dari segelas air gula
Selaksa aroma hutan datang dari seberang langit
Segar…. sesegar mint… Harum… seperti harumnya coklat….
