Chernobyl

I wonder what it's like to walk in the forsaken ruins of Chernobyl...

Oh the suspense is killing me.

The sight of a blast from the past truly is exciting and I myself am attracted to it.

Why would I want to go there?

It's simple.

To understand the value of things.

People always say that you wouldn't know the value of something until you've lost it.

I want to see,

I want to feel,

The value of a place which has lost everything but yet still something remains there.

Oh Chernobyl....

Gelombang Gelora

Dalam dakapanmu,
Aku lemas,
Ingin sekali aku berlari pergi,
Biarkan aku sendiri.

Semakin jauh,
Aku mula jatuh,
Pandanganku kabur,
Aku terhenti di sini.


Here We Go Again...

That moment,
Which is now,
When Doubt had successfully captured,
Both mind and heart,
Oh how I feared,
The same thing will happen,
Once again...

This I say,
Come soon the day I dread,
In which wind blows heavily,
Disturbing my sense of tranquility,
Now what will happen to me,
To my face,
And to my sanity?

Not again,
To The Forgotten Path,
My legs had dragged me,
Soon enough,
I'll witness the choice I had made,
Which might lead me either to repent, regret or repeat,
Will the new me betray the old me?

Sewing Class

I mend my scars carefully,
Using cultural threads,
Which once binded myself,
To the ground where I came from.

Let it be I said,
Neglected to look,
Nor ponder upon them,
Those damned pains of the past...

Mata

Mata...

Mereka pernah berkata bahawa apa yang kau lihat semuanya dusta.

Benarkah tuduhan sebegitu?

Pada pendapat saya, penglihatan kita berbeza.

Jika kau melihat menggunakan kedua-dua belah matamu, nescaya tiada apa pun yang sempurna kerana fitrah kita akan secara sendirinya mengenal pasti baik buruk setiap sesuatu. Sungguhpun begitu, tidak semestinya melihat menggunakan biji mata sahaja. Itu tidak memadai. Masih ada mata hati, bukan?

Mata hati melihat dari sudut emosi,
Kewujudannya tidak perlu disangkal lagi,
Kuasanya hebat tiada terperi,
Penggunanya cermat berilmu tinggi.

Lihatlah dunia dari sudut berbeza dan lihatlah ia dengan fikiran yang terbuka didorong perasaan ingin tahu.

Jika kamu melihat dengan sebelah mata, pergilah kamu menikmati kebaikkan yang ada di atas muka bumi ini,
Jika kamu menutup sebelah mata, beralihlah daripada menjadi saksi kepada kezaliman yang dilakukan para saudara mahupun saudari...
