Pepohonan Tumbuh Miring

Denting-denting pagi
mengirimkan cahaya jingga
menembus rimbun daun dan ranting tua

Pepohonan tumbuh miring,
bukan karena salah arah
tapi karena disanalah cahaya berada

Langkah-langkah kaki
mengikuti jejak kenangan
yang tersekat dalam setiap bisikan warna

Jiwa menghitung usia
hati menghitung rasa yang tersisa
tumbuh miring, mengikuti cahaya

TREES GROW SIDEWAYS


Morning chimes
send amber light
through the tangle of leaves and old branches

The trees grow sideways,
not because they have lost their way
but because that is where the light resides

Footsteps follow
the trails of memories
sealed within each whisper of color

The soul counts its years
the heart counts what feelings remain
growing sideways, following the light
