I Was Sad (Do not tell, show)

  At night, when the crickets start singing, I walk towards the shore. I know, people are watching my appearance. But I don't care about their worried looks. My white skin turned pale. My eyes are droopy and the retina of my eyes is like a faded red stamp. With my unbalanced footsteps, I dragged the sandal on the ground and made a loud noise. Arriving at the edge of the beach sand, I went down the stairs weakly. "drap... drap..drap" my feet finally stepped on the soft sand. I stared at the dark beach with a dazed look. Unknowingly my tears fell. One by one. Slowly but surely, I took off my sandals. I walked straight towards the beach. "brussshhhh" the beach water hits my feet, then my calves. The more desperate I walked to the middle, the higher the beach water reach me. "I'd rather drown in this seawater than drown in my tears of sorrow for the past 11 months."  

The class is a mess (Do not tell, show)

  The desk was pushed out of place, the sound of the table creaking along with the sound of clattering feet running through the classroom. The disciples were like flying fireflies. Even the chairs are not where they should be. The laughter of the students was very loud, the wad of paper thrown at each other. Teasing each other while laughing, playing cat and mouse. Books were strewn on the floor, papers flying everywhere. Makes the class look messy. One of the boys shouted at his friend "watch out! The plane is coming! Nnneeaaaooowww"

I Was Happy (Do not tell, show)

   In the open space of nature, beneath the layer of the atmosphere where birds fly, among as cool as cloudy weather, there is a ridiculous crisp of laugh that is heard from a sweet young couple.   Came from a girl who was laughing away with a boy, In February 2020. So loose is the laughter, her eyes became squinty. Her chubby cheeks were shot up. Her bunny teeth were visible, how sweet it is. The jester that she was doing with him, made her very happy. Never did the universe see her laugh like that.   The girl laughed until she could not breathe. Her eyes sparkled with joy. Her giggles heard by many people made them laugh. The chair the girl was sitting on, made a creaking sound following the shaking of the girl's body, that could not stop laughing. February 2020, the girl is very happy. She was happy. The girl is me who will never laugh as happy as those times. The girl is me. I was happy. It was.

  Fair winds and following seas Blue until dark blue hug the huge seas That formidable black ship refuses to sink If must, without honored way, refuses to sink Far far away, our hero were go away Carrying their each families love to passed away We grieve, because all we can do nothing but grieve We wish you a happy sailing Sailing across the ocean, wading through the Bali Trench We wish you a great rest, and we brought a flower’s bunch To let you all go, that we can not release at all To remembering you, On eternal patrol. Good bye on eternal patrol.

  Suatu hari di dalam windu nanti, kasih – aku adalah pulau lagi pantaimu Tak pernah ku gapai Jumantara setinggi dan seindah itu di dalam pelukmu Tak pernah akan ku berikan lagi tulus telanjang nan cendayam ini pada siapapun jua Tapi, kasih – betapa manusia terlalu naif dan menjunjung gengsi tentang cinta Sebab itu pula telah banyak lahir manifestasinya Ada yang pada doa Ada yang pada cinta Sampai kondom sutra yang ditopengi kata Paramarta Agar kita tidak melanjutkan dosa

  Jemalaku serupa pasir pantai yang mengandung cinta lalu dibantai Serupa dengan merindu ombakmu yang syahdu namun apati Berdirinya kaki dilembar halus balutan pasir ini, aku bersumpah dan bernyanyi Tiada lagi purusa yang kupinta pada Rabb Maha Punya selain kamu, Kasih Malam ini, mungkin selena cemburu karena kini lunar dibawah air lautnya tidak lagi ku buru Selain namamu, kasih. Namamu. Kuburlah aku di pantaimu. Sebab akan aku maknai lebih jauh seluruh dirimu. Melalui ombak yang dingin lagi niskala. Melalui karang yang tajamnya menyayat cendera Sebab akan kucintai baskaramu yang bagiku tanpa cela senja nanti Kubur aku hidup hidup di pantaimu, maka akan ku kubur dirimu bersama sengkarut puisi-puisiku.

  Fragile back but will always be tough enough to carry little me A gentle angelic hands but always tough enough to work to keep me growing, free You were home to me Comfort and protected me Your touch such as silk Your love such as overflow milk You were an angel but at the same time you were my hero Who always try so hard that we do not fall to zero Maybe life does not seem fair to us I do not know, what will life do to us But as long as I have you, Mom. I will fight it for you, for us. For our lives.
