we could have been a perfect family

Have you ever think about it?
We could have been a perfect family?
and this place could be a very nice home
I mean, perfect with all the imperfection and only us that could understand
Have you ever think about it?
About the trully meaning of family 'should be'?
Family, as sisters and brothers, you and i
we could have been a perfect family
Neither you nor i ever forget right?
A long road that we've been through together
Some people gone for a reason
But we always be one hundred family members
No matter what

TL 2011 i love you


Tapi, yayaya . .

Tadinya aku sempat berpikir kamu malaikat yang dikirim Tuhan untuk mengobati si Juli Kelabu
Aku salah
I'm way to naive
ternyata kamu bukan kiriman Tuhan
dan kamu juga bukan malaikat, bukan bahkan dalam imajiku

Kamu hanya mereka-mereka yang sekedar singgah
dan bahkan tidak mengetuk pintu
Aku tetap akan menerka kamu seperti itu,
bukan karena kemauanku, tapi karena memang yang aku tau hanya itu
Dan karena yang asing akan tetap menjadi asing
Mereka yang bahkan tidak mengetuk pintu
Hanya singgah dipelataran rumah, ya mereka-mereka adalah asing

Juli Kelabu

Lagi-lagi si Juli Kelabu
Kenapa baru tersadar si Juli Kelabu ini tak lain cuma bayangan ya
Shadow from the past that refuse to disappear
Dan jadilah si Juli Kelabu direplikasikannya menjadi image masa lalu dalam wujud masa sekarang
Poor you Gloomy July
You don't even realize it
Till other people seeing it

What a shame

Aku belajar

Aku rasa aku sudah cukup malang Tuhan, juli ini menyakitkan
Dan aku sudah berulang kali belajar, untuk berharap lebih hanya pada-Mu
Katanya kita harus belajar dari kesalahan dahulu,
untuk benar-benar paham jalan kebenaran kan?

Tuhan, apakah pelajaranku masih kurang untuk ini?
Jika dirasa kata cukup mungkin masih jauh,
aku akan terus belajar Tuhan
Tapi ilmu ikhlas ini benar-benar tidak mudah
Juga kepasrahan dan kesabaran
Kadang juga sulit untukku paham akan makna dari kejadian,
Tapi memang aku tidak harus selalu paham kan?

we have lost the way


“…. The way of life can be free and beautiful. But we have lost the way.
Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate;
has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.
We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in:
machinery that gives abundance has left us in want.
Our knowledge has made us cynical,
our cleverness hard and unkind.
We think too much and feel too little:
More than machinery we need humanity;
More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness.
Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. 
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, 
cries out for universal brotherhood for the unity of us all. 
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, 
millions of despairing men, women and little children, 
victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. 
To those who can hear me I say "Do not despair"....
Charli Chaplin’s The Great Dictator

We have lost the way
