Lost Loves Calling

Come hold me now
I am not gone
I would not leave you here alone
Is this could calm beneath the waves
I can still hear the lost loves calling

You could not speak
You were afraid
To take the risk of being left again
But here I am stand to defends
And I'm not going anywhere

And in month street way  in June
When I hear those seabirds cry
I hold her hand
In the dark side of the moon

The moonlight gone
This boy still wait
This final notes mute in silence
When the dogs bark in the moon

Speak to me now
Don't be afraid
Do you remember when we were young?
And now there's nothing left but time to tell
I can still hear the lost loves calling

And in month street way  in June
When I hear those seabirds cry
I hold her hand
In the dark side of the moon

Come close to me
Don't be far away
Do you think I don't need you, do you?
Gimme your heart, gimme your souls
I can still hear the lost loves calling

Do you know me?
Am I did too?
Do you think this boy could not dying?
Is this could calm beneath the waves
I can still hear the lost loves calling.

Go Fishing

As bike go by I cast my mind's eye
Over back packs on green bubu
Beyond the horizon
Where dream makers
Working white plastic processors
Wearing shirt and short three quarter
Reach for the pie in the sky
Go fishing my friend!


We set out in the estate
With a bike full of problems about everything
About light devices
And how nice natural water is
We cut down some trees
And we trailed our camp
Through the forest glade
We dammed up the stream


And the kids cooled their heels
In the fishing pool we'd went
We held worms and we installed thems
And we practically lived off the land
You adopted a fish and ill
Whose mother was somebody's coat
You fed him by hand
And then snuggled snuggled him down
By the father's chair while I wrote
We grew our own maize
And I only occasionally went into town
To stock up on antibiotics
And shells for the dagger that I kept around
I told the kids stories while you worked your loom
And the sun went down sooner each day.


*Chapter three in which Naza has a work
And gets two plastics of worm
Friend...come on dude
Naza the old green motorbike stood by the side
Of the stream and he stood down under the sun
"Pathetic" he said, "That's what it is"
"Good morning Naza" said Ayim
"Oh" said Ayim, He thought for a long time


The leaves all fell down
Our crops all turned brown
It was over
As the first snowflakes fell
I realized all was not well in the camp
The kids caught bronchitis
The space oil ran out of gasoline
One weekend a friend from the East
Rot his soul
Stole your heart
I said "Fuck it then
Take the kids back home
Maybe I'll see you around"


And so...leaving all our hopes and dreams
To the wind and the rain
Taking only our stash
Left our litter and trash
And set out on the road again
On the road again


Bye Bye friend, Bye friend
You can bring Pearl she's a darn nice girl
But don't bring Court.

Kota Kecundang

Rendangnya pepohon menghijau
Mencuit hati mengukir senyuman
Gugurnya dedaun yang mekar
Umpama seseorang yang rebah ke bumi

Terbina istana cantuman berdua
Dari bata dan batuan cinta
Berbumbungkan romantika ayat kasih
Menjadikan kota bersih dan suci
 
Pecahnya dinding-dinding cinta
Bertaburan gugur ayatan sayang
Ditembak oleh peluru kebencian
Dimamah sikap insan yang dekat
Terselit perasaan kecundang
Sayu, pedih, menderitanya aku

Kepahitan dan kesakitan berkubu
Yang kian membesar didalamnya
Kesetiaan kian karam
Ditelan gelora hati yang pedih
Melafazkan mentera yang berbunga
Yang tidak pula tersirat didalamnya

Sengsara yang tiada penghujung
Perjalanan yang tiada penamat
Waktu dan harta dikorbankan
Untuk membina sebuah kota
Tapi hanya sekadar bayangan
Roboh dalam sekelip mata

Seorang tak bisa ketahui
Deritanya aku seorang diri
Bak pelayaran ditengah lautan
Saat lautan bergelora diributan

Melihatmu yang serba cantik
Tanpa jelak tatapi berhari-hari
Apa maksud yang ingin dihurai
Apa pula perasaanmu terhadapku?

Leaving Asahan

I handed her the keys to the motorcycle
We motored down to Tangkak with EX5
I sat down at the back seat
Climb the hill on the road
The road is hard, hard and long
Dropping me at the bus station
While I wearing pale blue jeans and Dream Theater black shirt
I found the words and talked to her
Laughed, yelling and smiled each other
And fingered her while she focused on her driving
She smiled, and so do I
We stucked in traffic jam for a few minutes
Then parked the bike in front of the bazaar
I saw the police turned on the sirens
Everybody watched and figured it out bout' what happened
One of em' got out and gave a noticed to some cars
I fingered my girl, handshaked and waves goodbye


So we left Tangkak town and I
She headed east to Asahan and the rest of it
I set out North
I walked the four or five miles to the last of the street lamps
And hunkered in the curb side dusk
In no great hope at the ramshackle procession of leaving home
An ancient bus 'Cepat Sedia'
The ubiquitous at South, shared buses drew up
I turned out my pockets and gave a ticket at the driver
I walked passes and took my seat at the back beside the Chinese girl
"Hello" she said and smile
"Hello" I smiled and nodded
And got in small talked between strangers
The driver turned an engine on
I stooped to look inside at the two men there
One besuited, bespectacled, moustached, irritated, distant, late
The other, the one who had spoken,
Frail, fifty five-ish, bald, sallow, in a dark blue sleeved pale black cotton shirt
With one biro in the breast pocket
A clerk maybe, slightly sunken in the seat


And some miles later the bus slowed in the middle of the freeway
I stucked again, bad traffic jam
Hundred cars on there, could be thousands maybe
While the sun going down in the sunset
So I used to looked outside
Seeing the huge accident where's seven or eight cars are involved on it
Mercedes, Protons, Perodua, Toyota and so on
After half an hour we'd arrived
When on the right I made out the low profile of a TBS building
A man soft voice called out in Malay to announced our arrival
I stood up in the middle of the walkway in the bus
The driver opened the door, pulled out my bag and got out


So I headed to Putra World Trade Centre
Took the RLT Ampang line for about 35 minutes to reach there
Bought two tickets to Jertih, one for me and the other for my future fiance
I watched the old man beggar sat down in the corner of the RLT station gate
I handed him the money
He said in Malay "Terima kasih" while nodded
Then I set off to TBS station agained
I saw two men talked louder, Albanian maybe
They talked excitedly and it make me smiled
And after a while, I reached there
And proceed to ERL, the fast train to Salak Tinggi
I sat beside an officer with green coats and biro in the breast pocket
With the rucksacks, three bags in front of him
I turned on my acer and connected the wifi
Checked out the mails and updated my status in social network
Then I shut the lappy off
Took my things and got out from the fast train
And my friends already waited for me at outside of the station
And off we went, they drove me home.
