Moon

my love affair with the moon
started way too early
from the balcony of my parents' house
straight to my heart

Escape

You're my sweet escape
True love never fades
My guilty pleasure
My aversion and treasure
A beautiful imperfection
Possible deviation
Unmistakable direction

Journey

journeys remind me of you
that moment when my heart was broken
in a way that can never be fully repaired
and you were across the ocean
picking up the pieces over sounds and waves

Valentine's

Don't you dare wish for chocolates as a symbol of my love
You're already devouring my heart
Is it not enough?

Dream

Did you dream of me again last night?
Or are you still hiding in broad daylight?

Maaf

Bibir masih menguntum senyum
Biarpun luka belum sembuh
Buat hatinya luluh, jiwa merusuh
Arkian segala yang berantakan
Tatkala janji dilupakan
Ditinggal sunyi di satu persimpangan
Kerana manusia itu tegar memaafkan

Conversation

tell me why you are here
when I keep on blasting the fire
aren't you afraid that I have no cure
to all heart breaks so severe
I think I might hurt you again
don't come near, I might cause you pain
brace for thunder but stop waiting in the rain

----

I am here because you need me
the fire won't hurt, nor will your tears on me
there is no treatment to my scar
might turn purple, like a dense blazingstar
it's okay, you can fall baby, I'll catch you
don't worry, I know what I'm getting myself into
I'll brace for the thunder because I love you

My Sunday

Are you the Sunday who came to love endlessly,
or are you the Sunday who saw the pain that has been breaking me?
Will you bring me the most memorable week ahead,
or will you chase me down to repeat everything that has been said?
I can't predict my future
but I know for sure
you won't disappoint even if you keep on trying harder
you don't have the power
to bring me down lower
because where I stand now is where I want to be
Dear Sunday, I think we can do this together - can we?

La La Land (ii)

I miss the things we created together
The secrets we shared with each other
The joy of looking into your sleepy eyes
Staying up until the sunrise
Finding reasons til we were out of excuses
When we both know all of it were useless
We didn't need to hide the feelings
We swore to have the happy endings
So we said goodbye when we didn't have to
Praying that was the right thing to do
Letting go the future we were scared of
Not knowing it was a real love

La La Land (i)

the could-have-beens
the beautiful memories
the temporary happiness
the subtlety at its finest
the untimely separation
the swirl and twirl of emotions
the reference like it was yesterday
the spark of hope in between rays
the question, what would we find
the wonder, what if i stayed behind

Puisi untuk Wanita Terakhir

A translation of Fattah Amin's poetry, recited during his appearance on MeleTOP (17th January 2017)
--------

Telahku tahu sedari mula
sejak awal detik pertama
diri tak mampu melupakanmu
jika kita terpisah tanpa mahu
saat aku berada denganmu
memandang jernih mata indah itu
terasa damai dan tenang
dikurnia harapan dan kekuatan
kau bagaikan bintang bergemerlapan
cerah menghiasi malam-malamku
kau memberi makna kehidupan
tatkala di sisi menemaniku
kau bagaikan mentari berseri
terang bersinar sepanjang hari
kata-katamu dan senyum manismu
melenyapkan setiap resah di kalbu
dirimu satu kemegahan
saat cita bukan lagi sekadar impian
kau iringi langkahku dengan doa
pada mimpi ini kau yakin dan percaya
berulang kali juga
degup jantungku laju sebelum menyapa
dan tiap kali kita terpisah
melihat kau pergi, hatiku resah

Sword

You gave me a sword so I can make threats. Don't act like you are surprised when you're the one hurting.

Orange

I have fallen in and out of love. The fear of losing you beats the strength to let go. If 120 months did not change anything, what would an additional 12 do? Nothing. I ran from silence and I arrived at an empty space. Your words are haunting. My soul is burning.

Picture-perfect

Maybe you have moved around my heart, turning me upside down, running through my mind all day and all night and driving me crazy with the uncertainties. But there's one thing I know for sure - that you're here to stay.
