The Drinks…

Poem

Picture by: Naziratun Ulfa

We were beginning a story… another part of our diary

“Moving backwards to the past, I saw you in love. Loving someone with the hundred questions to realize… realizing that the girl over there would become your another story to fill in with. Beneath this cloudy sky, it has its own story between you and I… in between us.”

Then you begin with those words, expressing your feeling to me, showing me your hopes, letting me know where your heartbeat belongs to; you’re giving me love.

That I’m not sure who you are, since the way how you looked at me was… was something special.

I could just abandoned you behind, left away and ignored you at all. However, you were standing right in front of me… with that red rose aura.

Then, how could I tell you that this was fake?

How could I blind my eyes from you?

How could I darken yours by closing my own heart?

You came and brought nothing unless…

Unless your love.

And you began scratching love in your diary. Letting your ink to write my name, letting your mind to draw my face, just letting your heart belongs to mine.

When some men came based on their fake love, you’re here to show me the truth.

When they asked me to reply theirs, you’re here just waiting me with that smile.

When they trapped me with those words, you’re here… ready to write another chapter with me.

And there’s no hesitation, when your love come over within me, my heart has listened up to yours.

There is no hesitation when your eyes have told me the truth; your sincere feeling.

So,

I won’t let the time goes by

I won’t let this bright day turns to be dark

I won’t make you waiting more longer

Here I am, letting my name writen itself inside your diary to become “us”.

Here I am, always glad to hear “you and I” is turning to become “we”

And I’m really excited that you say “our love”

Yet, this is our feeling.

After your tears blown away, after those gloomy days attacked, and after your tragic life, finding who you really are. In the end, I’m here next to you, will always hold your hands, always walk each step together, always by your side coloring your faded parts.

As I won’t let you just become a fiction. Here we are living the path in our reality story. That you send me your love, I deliver my devotion. Because you chose me as your girl, I’ll stay within you under the same umbrella; while drinking up our beverages.

We stand by facing each other,

Looking at the same eyes,

Expecting the same feeling,

Colouring up our cloudy sky,

and since our love is equal to

That you put my name in your faith, I’m on my way to come in your reality.
