26 desember - kita untuk mereka

Wahai kawanku tercinta
Keringkan air matamu
Jangan kau tangisis lagi hidupmu
Karena hidupmu masih kan berarti

Kepalkan lagi tanganmu
Labuhkan perih hatimu
Kuatkan langkah kakimu kawanku
Untuk menapak hari depan nanti

Uluran tanganku ini
Tak tertandingkan oleh hancurnya hatimu
Saat ia meninggalkan dirimu

Tak pernah semudah bicara
Takkan semudah ku berkata
Namun percayalah bahwa esok hari
Semua akan berganti lebih baik

Ulran tanganku ini
Tak tertandingkan oleh hancurnya hatimu
Saat ia meninggalkan dirimu

dari padi untuk atceh tercinta - indonesia

26 desember

26 desember tepat dua tahun lalu
amuk tsunami hampiri negeri
torehkan luka tak terperi
iringi parade ribuan syuhada yang mati

26 desember tepat dua tahun lalu
dua hati mengikat janji
kejam dunia coba arungi
lewati riak riam ego diri

26 desember kini
luka mengangga sisa tsunami
masih tersisa dalam negeri
tertatih coba benah diri


26 desember kini
dua hati tlah mati
kubur harapan dan mimpi
jalani hidup sendiri
toreh luka tanpa benci

hidup pernah bersisian
berpisah di persimpangan
sampai jumpa,
kawan ...


teriring doa dari sepenggal kenangan…

coretan hati akhiri hari

sang surya tenggelam tersaput mega
benderang redup perlahan terselimut kelam
tarikan lenggok bintang dan rayuan rembulan
selamat datang duhai malam

oh putri anggunmu atasi sang dewi malam
tenang terjarak tak tersentuh jalang
langkah terjaga titah Illahi
kerlingmu cipta berjuta mimpi

jelang akhir dari hari
selamat malam putri
smoga gapai bahagia diri
raih ridho Illahi Rabbi

coretan hati awali hari

mentari genit mengerling di ufuk
nakal menggoda lelap sang putri
buyarkan mimpi malam tadi
selamat datang duhai pagi

wahai putri yang semburatnya lebihi mentari
kilau tak silau hangatkan hati
laksana permata surgawi
senyummu mabukkan hati

selamat datang pagi
selamat pagi putri
teriring doa dalam hati
jalani bahagia hari

pinta, asa serta rasa

perlahan hampir tak teraba
sebaris nama terengkuh dalam dada
terapal bak mantra pujangga
terselip gemulai dalam doa

sekejap memang baru pertemuan
seumur hayat terasa perkenalan
waktu tak pernah jadi pertimbangan
rasa dihati pastilah kebenaran

dipuncak tertinggi kota
terlantun pinta, asa serta rasa
duhai putri dari nirwana
akankah kau teteskan buliran cinta

hilangkan kering dalam jiwa
punahkan haus dahaga raga
tumbuhkan tunas asa bahagia
bersatu slamanya

global warming

now it’s december but the weather seems like in mid of august at Bornoe Island. It’s bloody hot, so hot that I’ve got 2^nddegree sunburn. You just can’t predict the weather anymore; maybe it’s because of the global warming things, I don’t know, what I know december is supposed to be a rainy season here in Indonesia.

Thank God, at least I brought my sunglasses when I went there cause my friend already warn me about the weather but I never realize that the temp will be so high, around 35C, but the humidity is very high so it makes you sweat every time.

Prayer time quickly become my favorite cause I can washed my face, hands, legs etc and hide under the roof for a while.

And to make it worse when I went back there was an emergency call, so I had to give my private plane seat to someone else. So I had to gone through more than 500 km by almost-not-working-aircon car.

God … Borneo, have you ever seen the rain?

seeds of corruption

this time I went to Surabaya to visit a port and container related companies, and it makes me sick pal. From company to company their asking the same question, “what is our benefit if we try your products?”. No no no, they’re not asking about company benefit but ‘their’ benefit

what a sick world, not even a single person asked for their company benefit, it’s really gone to fa for me. I’m not a sales guy, the reason I went there is only for better understanding my company position and brand awareness but of course I can’t avoid if they raise a question regarding price. But this time, exactly after they know the price, they will followed with another question similar like, “so, how much will I get if we (our company) buy your products?”

I know, Indonesia is well known as a corrupt country, but this time … speechless …

may they rooted in hell !!!

HIV+

Every December 1^st, we celebrate (well, celebrate is not the right word) World AIDS day, but this time I celebrate it in totally different way, yup once in a lifetime experience maybe.

I have friend, a close one, and he’s an HIV positive but overall he’s ‘healthy’ and got a good job at one of the best rehabilitation centre in Indonesia. Last week he called me and asked me a favor, boy, it’s an extraordinary and amazing favor.

He asked me to propose a girl (she’s HIV positive too) to become his wife. Can you imagine? Well in our culture usually his father will do this job, but since his father was passed away several years ago he asked me to replace his father job.

I do flattered actually but, man ..., yeah year ago I propose a girl one time and eventhough is not working, at least I already had experience regarding this propose stuff, but again its totally different thing.

But at the end after muse several nights I said, ‘Ok, I’ll do it.’

So, at night, to completed the WAD celebration thing, we went to her house and me, myself, for the first time in my life, proposed a girl to become my friend’s wife. Thank God everythings run just like what we wanted to be right now.

What an unforgettable experience.
