A birthday present for you in eternity
Is there an end of the far and long distance
of your eternal nonexistence?
The path in my heart is quiet and barren
The trees step aside
Like a howl of longing that won’t be silenced
“Be strong, don’t sway
Be like roots making way
to grip the ground,” so you say
I run seeking and unleashing colors
of the memories of a thousand nights with you
But I am buried in silence
Today, no candle will be blown
But I still light up the wick
In a long prayer
Bandung, March 30th, 2019
