REQUIEM

Under the wide and starry sky
Dig the grave and let me lie:
Glad did I live and gladly die,
And I laid me down with a will.

This be the verse you ‘grave for me:
Here he lies where he long’d to be;
Home is the sailor, home from the sea,
And the hunter home from the hill.

Robert Louis Stevenson

I only able to hear your voices
When my dreams and my expectation mourn for me,
When my shadow stand up to stare other side of me,
I only able to hear your voices

Possible this is a lost to the beloved lover,
possible this is the fistful of tartness to all friends,
but is possible my delayed gladness,
and this is heaven desire who my heart also surely melt to accept

So, just let me lie on this sand

Not cuz I only able to hear your hopes
I only able to breathe with your air
I only able to give you my smile with your lips

Cuz I only able to hear nothing …

So just let me lie on this lovely sand
