heart sink

Pupus - Dewa

Aku tak mengerti
apa yang kurasa
rindu yang tak pernah
begitu hebatnya
aku mencintaimu
lebih dari yang kau tahu
meski kau takkan pernah tahu
aku persembahkan
hidupku untukmu
telah ku relakan
hatiku padamu
namun kau masih bisu
diam seribu bahasa
dan hati kecilku bicara
baru kusadari
cintaku bertepuk sebelah tangan
kau buat remuk sluruh hatiku
semoga aku akan memahami
sisi hatimu yang beku
semoga akan datang keajaiban
hingga akhirnya kau pun mau

Through Love

Through love bitter things seem sweet.
Through love scraps of copper are turned to gold
Through love dregs taste like clear wine.
Through love agonies are healing balms.
Through love thorns become roses.
Through love vinegar becomes rich wine.
Through love the scaffold becomes a throne.
Through love disaster becomes good fortune.
Through love a prison becomes a rose garden.
Through love burning fire is a fragrant light.
Through love the devil becomes an angel.
Through love stones become soft as butter.
Through love grief is like delight.
Through love demons become servants of God.
Through love stings are like honey.
Through love lions are harmless as mice.
Through love sickness is health.
Through love the dead are resurrected.
Through love the emperor becomes a slave

Jalalludin Rumi - Odes
