psp, June 20, 2010 - 21:50 - on psp rain tonight

in solitude

narrow breadth of the world to me

hectic world deserted me

cerianya world to me empty

shortness of peacefulness of the world to me

I do not need to be a world

I just need to be me

leaving space and time

speak on this own self

know the nature and human

understand the place where I live

looked at all that is around me

in solitude

A Plain Life

No idle gold -- since this fine sun, my friend,

Is no mean miser, but doth freely spend.

No prescious stones -- since these green mornings show,

Without a charge, their pearls where'er I go.

No lifeless books -- since birds with their sweet tongues

Will read aloud to me their happier songs.

No painted scenes -- since clouds can change their skies

A hundred times a day to please my eyes.

No headstrong wine -- since, when I drink, the spring

Into my eager ears will softly sing.

No surplus clothes -- since every simple beast

Can teach me to be happy with the least.

I killed My destiny!

O friends ...
it is enough that you know
you are familiar enough
all about my anxiety
all about my dismay

This downturn makes me wilt
I'm here limp lilting
and remember, do not need help
I know you were not able to
God does not need to also tell you
He just wanted to see my struggle


let me ..., let ...
let the world laugh
Leave this life makes me sad
still will always be looking around for the time

then ...,
I killed My destiny!

In the Rain Today

still in the same place
usual wide-eyed night
until the morning sun greeted
I was not fast wake
It is difficult eye closed
then finish it all
walk menujuan clash

and the ripples seen rain fall
sebahagian sky at room deritaku
on half the days this peaceful
I spend time, sleeping up to earlier
no, not dead, I want to wake up again
continue the wonderful night

jolt I realized
knock-knock at the stone
in the stomach pulses
still looks sullen mist
let cool, wash the entire body
walked in the rain rinai
go my cool and empty space
then sitting on the bench time
spend the rest of the work on the screen world

Ya Allah ...
are ready to color rainbow
I want to look at him today

Ya Allah ...
thank you for washing the earth
I feel peace in my heart

wander is

Intelligent and civilized people do not dwell in his hometown
Leave your land and go into the land of the

Go on, do not you get a replacement from relatives and friends
Crease-lelahlah, the sweetness of life felt after a weary struggle

I saw the water still be damaged by silent restrained
If the flow becomes clear if he's not muddy puddle

The lion will never eat if you do not leave the nest
Children do not leave a bow an arrow if it does not hit the target

If only the sun in their orbits do not move and keep quiet
Sure man tired of him and reluctant to look

Moon if constantly full moon throughout the ages
People do not wait for the emergence of future

Gold seeds as usual before the excavation of land mines
Once processed and mined people crowded fight

Aloes wood is like a regular wood in the forest
If brought to the city to change expensive so coveted tycoon

Joint Nature

There is a longing that carved in stone
There was the sound of water flowing along
There are scattered and peace
become the flowers of immortality.

Me, you and all of us will never know
What about the beauty of nature with his love
Give peace in the mountains and ocean
In the souls who need the peace of

I wanted to rip the quiet ...
when the birds sing and dance
I want to remove the troubled ...
waiting until the red light of the moon

In a complaint lodged grim nature of my soul
I let the joys and sorrows singing at the tops of the fir
Together with a light breeze kupadamkan all surge.
Disappeared for a moment from all congested
I pressed my whole passion and dreams

Here ... with this natural

Your Loving

I will continue to love you
Although have to walk on sharp pebbles
Ready to hurt me and through my legs
I will always hold all the tender
With a smile and laugh softly

I'm too fragile if you have to forget you
Let me getting crushed in this love
Until you understand
that I really love you
And if it all has to end
I still believe,
someday ... I'll be the most beautiful in your soul.
Because I will continue to 'love'

Hope

Ya Allah
If he is right for me, draw near her with my heart
If he's not mine, make peace with the provisions of thy heart
He was the jewel which has always hoped for
You unite us with Thy rancana
You hold us with thy power
Persatukanlah us with thy grace and gifts

Ya Allah
You place my hopes kubergantung
I hope we sentiasa under Your mercy
Make us to better understand each other
Love lead us to the road that you ridhai
Although ultimately he was not for me,
my heart is sincere with the provisions of thy Ya Rabb

here in this life journey

Nothing feels ...
I've been here a long time
It has been a lot of breath kuhembuskan
here in this life's journey
Happiness and sadness every day to accompany
mengeliligi spinning pace my life
here in this life's journey
I will forever here ...?
sometimes I want to turn away from it all
turned away from adversity will be a destination
and turn away from all the uncertainty
here in this life's journey
always try to survive even seem boring
always try to smile even in grief
always try though sometimes fragile robust
here in this life's journey
longing to accompany me
powerlessness membelengguku
however, expectations are always menguatkanku
here in this life's journey.
