*Teacher's Day

I may not be the fruit of your womb,
but you already like my own parent.
My second parent to be exact.

You didn't just teach me
ABC nor 123,
or y=mx+c,
or the Pascal's Principle,
or the locomotion of earthworms,
or C₂H₄ is ethene.
You teach me more than that.
You teach me how to be a better person.
You teach me about life, love and many more.

I may rebel sometimes.
I may skip your classes and didn't do the work.
Even worse, I may talk bad about you behind you.
But just so you know,
no matter if its big or little what you've taught me,
long or short period,
wherever I go,
I'll remember what you did to me.
Each and bits of it.

Thank you, teachers!
Happy Teacher's Day

*Mother's Day

I may not be as good as before.
I may not the perfect daughter.
I may disobey you sometime.
I may dislike you sometime.
But whatever it is, whenever it is, wherever it is,
you're my and only mother.
From the bottom of my heart, I love you.

Happy Mother's Day, Umi.

When I Was A Little Girl

When I was a little girl,
I used to dream to travel around the world.
To see other culture.
To see the other side of mountains.
To see the beauty of the world.
To be able to walk without failure.

When I was a little girl,
I dream and I achieve.
Now, all I can do is just dream.
I don't know if I still have a piece of that little girl.

I want to be able to dream and achieve again.
Dream and achieve.

Untuk Seorang Aku

Untuk seorang aku,
jatuh cinta bukan mudah.
Aku perlu rasa yang dalam
yang ikhlas, yang luhur.
Bukan rasa yang pura-pura.
Aku bukan lagi dia yang senang jatuh cinta
hanya kerana kata-kata manis.

Untuk seorang aku,
pelajaran bukan mudah.
Aku bukan anak-anak pintar.
Aku perlu ruang belajar.
Aku perlu betul-betul memahami sesuatu itu.

Untuk seorang aku,
kehidupan bukan mudah.
Aku bukan anak hartawan.
Aku hanya anak pekerja kerajaan.
Aku tidak dilimpahi dengan harta yang banyak.
Aku tidak dimanjakan dengan material.

Untuk seorang aku,
segalanya bukan mudah.
Tetapi, ianya tidak mustahil.

Angin Petang

Sesepoi bahasa ia datang.
Sentuhan selembut sutera ia beri.
Menerbang lalu pasir, dedaun di laman.
Bagai menerbangkan juga kusut di hati.
Bukan kusut seorang.
Tetapi kusut kami bersama.

Alangkah bagus jika selalu datang.

Hujan

Sekarang tengah hujan.
Lebat sangat.

Bau itu.
Bau hujan.

Aku suka.
Buat aku tenang.

Aku Mahu Ke Sana

Mahu hati ini
malangkah
ke sebalik
gunung sana.

Mana tahu.
Mungkin
rumput di sana
lebih hijau.
Mungkin
segala di sana
lebih baik.

Mana yahu.

Tapi
apakan daya.
Kudrat ku tiada.
hanya separuh perjalanan
patah sudah semangat ku.

*mengeluh*
