Poem Post #7: Solacer Hunt - Collaboration with Indra Mustawan!

This poem was originally made untitled in Bahasa Indonesia by Indra, Maz Leon's partner (click his name to see our work of poem!), my college friend, which had been graduated leaving me behind lol. It was translated by me into English for adding some poetry collection.

We do not own the illustration

Dimming blaze twinkles among darkness

Bitter’s pouring to fill a soul

Failing the smiles and laughters

I sank farther

This wound is gapped and so deep

Who’s the solacer?

Beliefs are all withering

When solitude becomes a real thing

My eyes were getting used to close

Crushing shadows and sharp shackles

Scrape my conscience

Shredding my dreams

Floating in the ocean

Shunned by day and night

Like a cracked mirror

I embrace tightly my emptiness

I saw their gazes

Asking for wishes

The new day had again spoken to me

But I have not been able to step forward

I wanted to give up

Never stop
