I DON'T BLAME YOU

I don't blame you because you cannot do the multiplication
I don't blame you because you cannot do the tasks given
I really don't
I only blame your parents who easily look for money
but alas! they also easily take you for granted..
or even worse...they think that you are an angel
while you actually don't know how to behave like one..
it feels like you were their burden besides chasing money...
while they believe that money works for them
and they never work for money any longer...
It is easy for your parents to take those words
from what -so - called - motivator....
selling the words for bunch of imagination
and still you are there...
not knowing what your tasks are...
even the tasks from this life...

DAUN JATUH

Saat daun itu tertiup angin
tangkainya sudah begitu rapuh
hingga kita melihatnya tak tertahan
dan tangkainya memutuskan untuk ikut serta
bersama angin, kemanapun ia meminta..
bukan suatu cerita sedih bagi sang dahan
juga bagi induknya, sang pohon
karena cerita ini sudah menjadi episode ulangan
setiap detiknya dalam hidup sebuah pohon..
hanya satu yang kita tak akan pernah tahu
atau lebih tepat tak mau tahu...
kemanakah akhir perjalanan sang daun..
karena angin tak pernah mengatakan apapun
selain desauan yang tak pernah kita pahami..
