If I’d be gone
never coming back
Remember me
Just my name as you call it
Just what I said to you
Just what I feel for you
Just what I thought of you
Just what I wrote to you
Just what I did wrong to you
Just my voice comforting you
Just how I remembered you
Just how I kept you
Just how stubbornly I stood by you
Just how foolish I was towards you
Just don’t remember
My face
I didn’t have one
for I had no place
that I belong

Name Without A Face
It is suicidal
To say I love you
Handing my heart over
My spirits
My soul
It is humiliation
To tell you
what I have inside
To express my feelings
Stripping myself nude
Losing selfness
No dignity
It is an embarrassment
To having hurt you
You cry in my ears
Yet I am nowhere near
I only have a name
I don't have a face
Suicidal
Humiliation
Embarrassment
Rip my face
Off my name
To say I love you
Handing my heart over
My spirits
My soul
It is humiliation
To tell you
what I have inside
To express my feelings
Stripping myself nude
Losing selfness
No dignity
It is an embarrassment
To having hurt you
You cry in my ears
Yet I am nowhere near
I only have a name
I don't have a face
Suicidal
Humiliation
Embarrassment
Rip my face
Off my name
Dalam Tidur, Dalam Jaga
Dalam tidurmu
Aku bercelik kesiangan
Meniti jiwamu kedamaian
Kulihat alis matamu
Tiada kekeringan
Dalam tidurmu
Kubuaikan mimpi keindahan
Kukutip kusimpan segenap kelaraan
Kusemat di rambutmu
Bunga-bungaan
Dalam tidurmu
Wajahmu ayu kemanjaan
Inginku sentuh tak kesampaian
Hatiku yang luluh
Kau bawa simpan
Dalam tidurmu
Masih kau genggam
Aku, cinta dan kalam
Walaupun sakitnya menikam
Bukan bahasa bukan gurindam
Hanya cinta yang amat mendalam
Rindukan terus berpanjangan
Dalam jagamu
Tangan-tangan kita berpegangan
Hati-hati kita berpautan
Aku bercelik kesiangan
Meniti jiwamu kedamaian
Kulihat alis matamu
Tiada kekeringan
Dalam tidurmu
Kubuaikan mimpi keindahan
Kukutip kusimpan segenap kelaraan
Kusemat di rambutmu
Bunga-bungaan
Dalam tidurmu
Wajahmu ayu kemanjaan
Inginku sentuh tak kesampaian
Hatiku yang luluh
Kau bawa simpan
Dalam tidurmu
Masih kau genggam
Aku, cinta dan kalam
Walaupun sakitnya menikam
Bukan bahasa bukan gurindam
Hanya cinta yang amat mendalam
Rindukan terus berpanjangan
Dalam jagamu
Tangan-tangan kita berpegangan
Hati-hati kita berpautan
Tetap Di Situ Jua
Kau seharusnya bepergian
setelah kubuat segala kau rasakan
aku seharusnya jua menghilang
takku terduga kau kesakitan
aku bukan bermimpi
aku tak pernah kau kenali
lalu musnahlah yang terbina
antara kita
namun cinta
ianya tetap
di situ jua
mahu saja kulepaskan pergi
jauh dari kesakitan ini
sebaiknya kau bagaikan dulu
seandainya aku
bukannya insan
yang kau fikirkan sebegini
namun kau ketahui jua
adanya kehangatan ini
yang pastinya takkan kau ketemui
di mana-mana jua
takkah kau terasa
jiwa yang membakar ini
ianya kan terus membakar
namun cinta
ianya tetap
di situ jua
tapi aku seharusnya
telah lama dulu bepergian
sejauh-jauhnya
dan kaupun seharusnya
menghilang
sekiranya kau tahu
ini bukan satu kemungkiran
bahawa aku
akan terus berada di sini
kerna cinta
ianya tetap
di situ jua
setelah kubuat segala kau rasakan
aku seharusnya jua menghilang
takku terduga kau kesakitan
aku bukan bermimpi
aku tak pernah kau kenali
lalu musnahlah yang terbina

Hard To Say I'm Sorry
Everybody needs a little time away
I heard her say, from each other
Even lovers need a holiday
far away from each other
Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
I just want you to stay
After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to
And after all that's been said and done
You're just the part of me I can't let go
Couldn't stand to be kept away
just for the day from your body
Wouldn't wanna be swept away
far away from the one that I love
Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
I just want you to know
Hold me now
I really want to tell you I'm sorry
I could never let you go
After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to
And after all that's been said and done
You're just the part of me

The Kitchen
Would you hang on, dear
I won’t be very long
I have dishes to do
unhappy royals
keep the world hungry
Would you hold, dear
it's only one minute
I got lunch to cook
Hungry prince and princesses
Send people to dungeons
Can you hold, dear
Just for a minute
I have laundry to do
To keep royal
In immaculate attires
Angry queen
Beheads people
One minute please
I will be right back
I have a castle to tidy up
Angry royals
turn villages into flames
I won’t be very long

The Little White Castle
This is a white sheet
Of paper
As she cleans it slowly
With her tears
Wiping off
That little White Castle
She had drawn
On to it
30 years ago
With no intentions
This is a white sheet
Of paper
For me to prepare
For the end
This is a white sheet
Of paper
For me to take home
To show my dad

Chance
We were in the clinic when my son asked, in his exact words,” Dad, Why are you looking so tired?” It stunned me. I took a deep breath and answered him,” Well, I have not been eating. Lost my appetite” He smiled and just looked back at his PSP, listening to Chicago’s It’s Hard To Say I am Sorry. The song disturbed me, really.
Son,
If I could answer you I will tell you this. In all that you do, follow your heart. Do what you must. Don’t worry about the others. Chase after what you looking for, the hardest that you can and get it. Never waste a chance, never waste a heart.
I will tell him that same thing I wrote here, in a few days.

Ready
Never been so ready
On this soft
Death bed
To blow
The last breath
Never been so fearless
In this cold
Death row
To walk to the gallows
To get it over with
Never felt so overwhelmed
By this thought
That I am just done with
On this soft
Death bed
To blow
The last breath
Never been so fearless
In this cold
Death row
To walk to the gallows
To get it over with
Never felt so overwhelmed
By this thought
That I am just done with

Build, Rebuilding
My entire life was
Build
and rebuilding
Paint
and repainting
To make it happen
To have it all like others
To have a place I’d call home
To have space where I belong
It was all fake
As fake as I always see them
It was all deceits
Mere make-beliefs
And this is world
As I thought
For all that I strived for
Just to fit in like the rest
Delivering smiles but all pretence
Just as they do themselves
Yet they turned against me
Holding me by the neck
Threatening my life
Holding the painting
And the building
Have it all against me
All my life
I have been building
And rebuilding
Painting
And repainting
To the day I discovered reality
She has me in her arms
Taking my life
All against my true self
My true love
Build

and repainting

Senja
Senja
Berulang rindu
Danku
Sebut namamu
Dalam suara yang bisu
Engkaukah itu?
Danku
Pulang kembali
Sewaktu dalam sunyi
Nyanyian kata hati
Rindukah itu?
Biarkan kemesraan berlalu
Bersama kesunyian yang padu
Akanku sebut namamu selalu
Namun ada rindu yang lebih dari itu
Kasih
Di mana janji
Dan engkau
Teruskah lari
Dari
Ku yang menanti
Engkaukah itu?
Berulang rindu
Danku
Sebut namamu

Daddy, I'm Coming Home
Daddy I’m coming home
I have given love
All my love
To the last drop
I have shed my tears
All my tears
That now it turns to blood
Daddy I’m coming home
I have tried the best I could
To build but mostly to re-build
I have no more fear if it crumbles
For I’m so tired
My body’s old and crippled
And it’s about time
Daddy I’m coming home
There’s so much hurt
My heart turned into stone
Bloodless, it turns my words
It turns my deeds
In cruelty and no mercy
Daddy, take me home
Fold my soul in the softest linen
Bathe it with springs from the mountains
Hand it to the bird and let it fly
Turn them soil friendly on me
Daddy I’m coming home
I have lost in all the battles
Lost mom and them all
Lost my family
Lost my friends
Most of all
Lost the one I loved
Daddy, I’m coming home
To you…..
I have given love
All my love
To the last drop
I have shed my tears
All my tears
That now it turns to blood
Daddy I’m coming home
I have tried the best I could
To build but mostly to re-build
I have no more fear if it crumbles
For I’m so tired
My body’s old and crippled
And it’s about time
Daddy I’m coming home
There’s so much hurt
My heart turned into stone
Bloodless, it turns my words
It turns my deeds
In cruelty and no mercy
Daddy, take me home
Fold my soul in the softest linen
Bathe it with springs from the mountains
Hand it to the bird and let it fly
Turn them soil friendly on me
Daddy I’m coming home
I have lost in all the battles
Lost mom and them all
Lost my family
Lost my friends
Most of all
Lost the one I loved
Daddy, I’m coming home
To you…..

Sleep
who do you see
what are you thinking
as the clock ticks slower
and slower
just before you fall
into a deep slumber
who's that soul
filling in the throne
as you breathe in deeper
and deeper
in the sweet sounds of your sleep
wrapping your body warm
Yes I've seen
those loving eyes
cherry red lips
silky cheek
every night, in her sleep
And I promise
that I will always be there
while you are asleep
to keep cold away
to shine on you in the darkness
to put cheers to the sorrow
and give you warmth
of one love that'll never end
Yet as the sun rises
with the first blink of your eyes
I'd be gone
to a distance so far
hideous, unseen to your wit
you'd call it a fairy land
but I was certain
it was you
it was me
what are you thinking
as the clock ticks slower
and slower
just before you fall
into a deep slumber
who's that soul
filling in the throne
as you breathe in deeper
and deeper
in the sweet sounds of your sleep
wrapping your body warm
Yes I've seen
those loving eyes
cherry red lips
silky cheek
every night, in her sleep
And I promise
that I will always be there
while you are asleep
to keep cold away
to shine on you in the darkness
to put cheers to the sorrow
and give you warmth
of one love that'll never end
Yet as the sun rises
with the first blink of your eyes
I'd be gone
to a distance so far
hideous, unseen to your wit
you'd call it a fairy land
but I was certain
it was you
it was me
The Bridge Ride
I was not looking as if it would rain today, therefore I decided just to ride my bike to Komtar today. I took the bridge instead of the ferry. Started just approaching lunch time, the traffic wasn't too bad and I kind of flew with my kapcai all the way through.
I remembered paying the toll, and the all of a sudden, I realized that I have not been routinely driving on the bridge for a very long time.
Those were the days when I commute through the bridge to go to work. I was a man of position. I was a man of power and drive. The work place was just a match box with a community size of just over 2000. I felt strong and powerful enough to drive my influence. All in the name of inventory management and supply chain. Well, I drove inventory lower. It was from USD39.5million down to USD9million, over a little more than a year. With that, I made name among corporate directors and won a number of certificates and bonuses. The presence of ex-pats around me was clear enough to confuse many of the employees, they thought I was an american. That was funny. Well those were the days, until I decided to join Dell. I had asked advice from easily 40 friends of mine, everyone said yes, go...but not Kak Rohaya, she said no. Well, I go by the majority..funny enough, what she said was true. I decided to leave Dell only after 8 months of work.
But most importantly, I followed part of the trail of someone, who has been travelling up and down the bridge a number of times in a week. After 30 years of not seeing one another, I felt close...very close

Just About To Go To Sleep....
when this came humming in my head..will serve a good lullaby..
I Wanna Know What Love Is
I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
I through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is
And I know, I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside
I want you to show me, and I'm feeling so much love
I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide
I know you can show me, yeah
I wanna know what love is, let's talk about love
I want you to show me, I wanna feel it too
I wanna feel what love is, I want to feel it too
And I know and I know, I know you can show me
Show me love is real, yeah
I wanna know what love is...

Tonight it's very clear
As we're both lying here
There's so many things I want to say

I don't wanna lose you
I could never make it alone

I'll be the hero you're dreaming of
We'll live forever
Knowing together that we
Did it all for the glory of love

Poem Of Love
when the words
do not convey their meanings
what can I write
in a poem of love
the language
has lost its soul
to express its feeling
to describe you its beauty
my love
would you read
the unwritten
from the lines of this poem
with the eye
of your sacred heart
do not convey their meanings
what can I write
in a poem of love
the language
has lost its soul
to express its feeling
to describe you its beauty
my love
would you read
the unwritten
from the lines of this poem
with the eye
of your sacred heart
baby don't go
staring at the ceiling
you'll find someone you miss
who'd never coming back
you'll find tears
seeping from your old heartache
baby don't go
staring at the ceiling
you'll find that precious thing
you'd never managed to get
you'll find sadness
from things you almost forgot
baby don't go
staring at the ceiling
staring at the ceiling
you'll find someone you miss
who'd never coming back
you'll find tears
seeping from your old heartache
baby don't go
staring at the ceiling
you'll find that precious thing
you'd never managed to get
you'll find sadness
from things you almost forgot
baby don't go
staring at the ceiling

Lord, If This Is Love
Lord,
if this is love?
right in front of my eyes
take my breath
take my life
I don't deserve to live
just another day
Lord,
if this is love
I have climbed mountains
drowned in oceans
ran out of lust
and have no desire
Lord
if this is love
you make life from the dead
you took life from the living
and so forth the circle of life
the centrifugal force of love
Lord
if this is love
such perfect creature
lay me rest
in a correct posture
if this is love?
right in front of my eyes
take my breath
take my life
I don't deserve to live
just another day
Lord,
if this is love
I have climbed mountains
drowned in oceans
ran out of lust
and have no desire
Lord
if this is love
you make life from the dead
you took life from the living
and so forth the circle of life
the centrifugal force of love
Lord
if this is love
such perfect creature
lay me rest
in a correct posture
Good Morning
good morning
just forget that evening
I was a tired man travelling
I was dumb, therefore didn't think
good morning
open your eyes keep smiling
the moon said you're prettiest thing
so get out, make the world sing
good morning
breath deep forget everything
check your eyes make sure they're sparkling
soon tonite, the stars will be twinkling
good morning
think of me it's worth nothing
I am man who's stumbling and falling
in my own world, of a funny being
good morning
brush your hair keep 'em shining
look in the mirror you'll find something
as you stood tall and still standing
just forget that evening
I was a tired man travelling
I was dumb, therefore didn't think
good morning
open your eyes keep smiling
the moon said you're prettiest thing
so get out, make the world sing
good morning
breath deep forget everything
check your eyes make sure they're sparkling
soon tonite, the stars will be twinkling
good morning
think of me it's worth nothing
I am man who's stumbling and falling
in my own world, of a funny being
good morning
brush your hair keep 'em shining
look in the mirror you'll find something
as you stood tall and still standing

The Whitest Of All Doves
have I not noticed
the still-est of these nights
from all other nights
where the whitest of white doves
caged in darkness
while there were shadows
promises of the shall be
the shiny scales and pearly feathers
made the dimmest
faintest light of all
intrusive
into the hearts of the dark
the palest face of all
if there would be blood running at all
abstain in the name of might
whispering..
'take me for whatever it's worth'
bring them light
have it been true
from the words you've said before
how could you have
made hairiest hairless
yet bringing back all the greeneries
to the barren, scorching land of ours
if it ain't the TRUTH
cry on queen
drench over our filthiest souls
wash us up clean
we've won our second breaths
it brought us
not to the second best
call on thy lord.........
By sisafajar
the still-est of these nights
from all other nights
where the whitest of white doves
caged in darkness
while there were shadows
promises of the shall be
the shiny scales and pearly feathers
made the dimmest
faintest light of all
intrusive
into the hearts of the dark
the palest face of all
if there would be blood running at all
abstain in the name of might
whispering..
'take me for whatever it's worth'
bring them light
have it been true
from the words you've said before
how could you have
made hairiest hairless
yet bringing back all the greeneries
to the barren, scorching land of ours
if it ain't the TRUTH
cry on queen
drench over our filthiest souls
wash us up clean
we've won our second breaths
it brought us
not to the second best
call on thy lord.........

Malaysian Education Objective
Did you know the objectives of our formal education in the country. I am sure if many of us knew it, we can add more strength to the effort. The objectives are:
Jati diri yang kukuh/utuh - varied according to capabalities and personalities
Berketerampilan yang tinggi- leadership/esteem
Berkeperibadian yang mulia- good virtues/noble values
Berpengetahuan yang luas- continuous learning, open boundaries, global
Berkemahiran tinggi- Technology, ICT, effective communication
Isn't that great?

UPSR, A Mom Crying
The Quran teacher of my kids came to our house as usual on Saturdays. This time she came bursting into tears over her daughter's UPSR results, 2B and 3C. I calmed her down and told her that she has every right to be mad and frustrated. However, the most important thing she must find out the reasons that lead to such result. It's a problem that requires fixing. I also told her that she must entrust someone to handle her kid's education. Someone has to be there to help the kid out because education is not only about teaching. There are other aspects that must be addressed in order to build a kid into an effective learner. I have a program developed on my own, tested and proved to be working. I had no choice but to mention it to her so that she could discuss with her husband before she makes any decision.
If kids are good learners, we'll have less headache.

UPSR
The UPSR result of the school my youngest used to attend wasn't good. Last year there were 27 of them with 5A, but this year it dropped to 15 only. This is abig drop. Well, who is to blame? The kids, parents, teachers, HM or who? Afterall the year has been one of the funniest and strange in our entire history with all sorts of happening. In my earlier writing I do warn our readers, what's going on with the kids as we are all entangled in the hustle and bustle of politics and obsenities. Well here it come, the results are showing. Should I preach further??
School Holiday Plans
Things I planned for the school hloidays which is just around the corner:
1) Sign up my kids to join the gym I am attending. Exercise together
2) 2 weeks worth of independence week. The kids cook, wash and clean on their own. It's just like 'survival' but in a very friendly environment
3) Trip to KL by bus and backpack
4) Start school stuff in a very relaxing mode, with interesting tools and activities.
There would probably be some more to add here and there, we'll do that as things come

Obama, The New President
I saw him on the net many times enough to make me adore him. He is a perfect gentleman, smooth talker, and he fits the presidential seat just fine. Like many of us think, enough is enough with what had been going on around the world in the past years, this time around could might as well be the year of the underdogs. Well, not just quite yet.
The appearance and name seemed to be persuasive to muslim world. This impact will not neccessarily be a positive one but we hope will be just, as long as his flexibility is not being abused by anti-muslim figures.
I heard he smokes too, what an underdog...

My Mentor
He emerged suddenly after almost 20 years being away from me. So, I looked into his eyes and told him, I am who you made me to become many years ago. It happened. he laughed and took of his glasses as he used to do. Here it goes, de ja vu. We compared our notes, and were satisfied to find that we read the same thing eventhough being away from one another for so long. So, I finally asked him, what's the agenda now? He seemed surprised although I knew he expected me to ask him that. What is the think-tank doing right now, if there is still one? He smiled. He said that question in itself is a message. It's floating around the country. There is no definite circle right now, your question will bring us to the very first step, form a circle. I was quite OK with his answers, although not entirely. I finally pointed him to the source of the agenda. Was that the purpose of the entire journey to meet me?

Snatcher, Ask 5 Why's
It has been very quiet and the silence majority gets even quieter. The fuel price came back down, not as low, but lower, much to the relief of many. Politics, well, you are the best judge as for now. I am taking it as if we are back to square one. Afterall, the crowd would not be that hard to tame, as far as Malaysians are concerned. We are pretty much absolute moderates. Lower fuel, lower commodity prices will pretty much put the crave for immediate change aside.
Well, except for one. A school kid got killed while chasing after a snatch-theif. This is one interesting news. The radios gave comments and most of them are like trying to make a 40 year old out of the kid. How could you do that? How could you stop a kid from doing that? He obviously didn't put too much time in weighing on priorities. Afterall, that's how kids are about.
Yet, no authorities are really digging in the cause of a sudden trend in snatching people's bag and handbags. There maybe reasons behind this phenomena that may relate to us all and our current situation. I am not going to do this analysis cause I am not paid to do so. I am paid to do other things. Well, like the Japanese said, ask five why's. I am sure there are many capable ones with plenty of training, countless engagement with the US, Japan, UK and even Israel, teaching all sorts of technics and mechanisms in defense and public order. Perhaps there is nothing taught by those 'great' countries because in their country, everybody has jobs, that they need not go snatching people's stuff all around.
