hujan(rain)
it was raining yesterday and i went outside to get some fresh air and i wrote this under the rain

gerimis(rain) (malay version)
Angin dingin menyentuh pipiku,
bagai kekasih yang lama berlalu.
Aku pandang hujan turun perlahan,
setiap titis bagaikan harapan.
Indah sungguh, tenang sekali,
namun hatiku tetap sunyi.
Hidup ini katanya indah,
tapi mengapa jiwa masih gundah?
Aku rindu lebih dari bayu,
pelukan hangat, bukan hanya syahdu.
Dalam setiap titisan yang jatuh ke bumi,
terpahat rindu yang tak pernah pergi.
hidup, apa makna hidup ini?
hanya bernafas sepi?

rain(English version)
Cold breeze kissed my cheeks
a lover's ghost in morning's hush,
I watched rain droplets fall from the sky,
like tears the heavens could no longer clutch.
How beautiful, how serene
yet something aches beneath the sheen.
Life is beautiful, they say
but oh, how I long for it to stay.
To feel more than just the wind's caress,
to be held in warmth, not loneliness.
In every droplet, a dream I chase
of belonging, of love, of a gentler place
