PUISI JEWEL

[morningdew]

allo ramlif, BraveHeart & surya_, nih puisinya Jewel buat kalian :)

Faith Poem
(a poem about Faith)

I don't know how to do anything
I am trying to move mountains with words
But I am an ant
I scribble
I drool
I move like a worm
whose world
(words)
encompassed a mile
How do I rise above?
Where will this worm
find wings?
I look in the mirror
and I see filth
Who is that?
Where did The Angel go?
Why is there dirt
staring back at me?
Why is the soil of
incompetence beneath my nails
Why does doubt paint
blue rings
beneath my eyes and
stain my skin
Why does my spine assume failure
Why do my lips
flirt with they sky;
why do I try to lasso
Beauty with such a
pitiful rope?
Where is the hair of Rapunzel
or Samson?
Where is my sling
Where is my stone,
My gun?
Where is the weapon with which
I may fight this apathy
that feels like sleep
in my limbs
that loosens my brother's smile
That kills my neighbor's daughter
This pen is scrawny and hardly
seems able to ink out
or erase this plague that
infests my
Generation
This Giant, This Ogre
This Beast, This Death
that assumes a million faces,
that borrows my own.

Flight #364

I
i miss you
my teeth ache
my bones are confused
they'd grown so close
my flesh cries like children
i speak to them in hush
it's not fair they say
bring him back!
beg him stay!
it's not up to me. i try to explain
but mind can't make heart understand
it does not whimper
its one lashed eye keeps blinking
it insists simply with quiet disbelief

[ramlif]

Dew, thanks... kebetulan gue juga udah buka, so, gue ikutan posting, ah (buat naikin peringkat! Masih junior, nih!)

There is a pretty girl
on the
Face
of the magazine
And
all I see
is my dirty
hands
turning the page

Little breasts attached to
skinny ribs and hungry bellies
determined legs
persuasive swing
careful hands
she stands
a greater threat to herself
than the cigarette
she consumes

[surya_]

Gue mo balik neh..besok disambung yah.. :)

[morningdew]

kok balik sih baru jam segini? ;(

ramlif thanks yah :)

[morningdew]

I Miss Your Touch

I miss your touch
all taciturn
like the slow migration of birds
nesting momentarily
upon my breast
then lifting
silver and quick--
sabotaging the landscape
with their absence

my skin silent without
their song
a thirsty pool of patient flesh

[morningdew]

What I Wanted

I guess what I wanted was to hear
you'd stay with me always
I guess what I wanted was to see
those hands vowing never to leave my own
I guess what I wanted to know was
I am not loving in vain

yang satu ini kena banget deh...:(

Gue suka salah satu lagu Jewel..judulnya kalo gue nggak salah sih..hands, yah??

[morningdew]

buat surya_ :)

Hands

If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we’re all OK
And not to worry ‘cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won’t be made useless
I won’t be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear

My hands are small, I know
But they’re not yours, they are my own
But they’re not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
Poverty stole your golden shoes
But it didn’t steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
But I knew it wasn’t ever after

We’ll fight, not out of spite
For someone must stand up for what’s right
'Cause where there’s a man who has no voice
There ours shall go singing

My hands are small I know
But they’re not yours, they are my own
But they’re not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken

In the end only kindness matters
In the end only kindness matters

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

My hands are small I know
But they’re not yours, they are my own
But they’re not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken

My hands are small I know
But they’re not yours, they are my own
But they’re not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
We are never broken

We are God’s eyes
God’s hands
God’s mind
We are God’s eyes
God’s hands
God’s heart
We are God’s eyes
God’s hands
God’s eyes
We are God’s hands
We are God’s hands

[morningdew]

[morningdew]

So Just Kiss Me

so just kiss me and let my hair
messy itself in your fingers

tell me nothing needs to be done
no clock needs winding

there is no bell without a voice
needing to borrow my own

instead, let me steady myself
in the arms

of a man who won't ask me to be
what he needs, but lets me exist

as i am

a blonde flame
a hurricane

wrapped up
in a tiny body

that will come to his arms
like the safest harbor

for mending..

[morningdew]

I Keep Expecting You To

I keep expecting you to fade
to wake up one morning and not care
so I keep myself
one carefully measured step away
in anticipation
of your love's decline
so when your cheek turns
and your attention wanders elsewhere
my heart will not be left
all awkward, hanging
from an elastic thread
you forgot to pull off
your old pair of socks
for it's in your nature
to lose interest suddenly
we are both artists
who **** the marrow out
of each lovely bone
it just happens to be
my lovely bones
this time

How bare..

for you who's starting to make me feel scared..

[morningdew]

PS

I wrote you those nice poems
only because
the honest ones
would frighten you

[morningdew]

I Am Patient

I am patient
but do not push

for it is silently
my heart will break
one night
and with no words
you will find me gone
come morning..

[morningdew]

Gather Yourself

Gather yourself at the seashore
and I will love you there

Assemble yourself with wild things
with songs of the sparrow and sea foam

Let mad beauty collect itself
in your eyes and it will shine, calling me

For I long a man
with nests of wild things in his hair

A man who will kiss the flame..

[morningdew]

Sometimes

Sometimes I feel
my heart fall
to vague depths
between words
there are such spaces that

I can't help but feel
my heart fall between
the pregnant pause
of all you will not say
and all i can not ask..

[morningdew]

I Guess What I Wanted Was

I guess what I wanted was
to hear
you'd stay with me always

i guess what I wanted was
to see
those hands vowing
never to leave my own

I guess what I wanted was
to know
I am not loving in vain..

[BraveHeart]

wuah punya jewel semua nih ? ^_^

[morningdew]

yup!!! bagus2 yah? :)

[morningdew]

tambah lagi ya?..:)

Too Many Nights

It's been too many nights
of being with

to now be suddenly
without

one of my favourites..:)

[morningdew]

angkat ah :)

[morningdew]

dais, ini topiknya, as i promised :)

Insecurity

You don't call, I check again
I become uneasy; Is this a frame?
Suddenly I'm not so sure
I check my sources
Each conversation becomes a crumb
How easily I'm led
How stupid I've been to believe
You could be loving me
You who could not be seduced
By anything other than the temperance of need
Each one facilitating the next
And suddenly I see my place
The phone rings, you say hello
But I don't believe you

[BraveHeart]

seneng ama Too many nights nya
^_^

Jewel di angkat lagi... :)

[morningdew]

gue juga suka itu, Brave. singkat banget, but deeeeeepp!! :)
