The Heart of the Matter: Forgiveness

What are these voices

outside love's open door?

Make us throw off our contentment

and beg for something more.

I'm learning to live without you now

but I miss you sometimes.

The more I know,

the less I understand.

All the things I thought I knew,

I'm learning again.

I've been tryin' to get down

to the heart of the matter.

But my will gets weak

and my thoughts seem to scatter.

But I think it's about

forgiveness, forgiveness.

Even if, even if

you don't love me anymore...

... The Heart of the Matter, Don Henley

Dragons

Fairy tales are more than true;

not because they tell us that dragons exist,

but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.

... G. K. Chesterton

In Memory, Love Lives Forever

To Strive, To Seek, To Find, And Not To Yield

Come, my friends,

'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.

Push off, and sitting well in order smite

The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds

To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths

Of all the western stars, until I die.

It may be that the gulfs will wash us down;

It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,

And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.

Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'

We are not now that strength which in old days

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;

One equal temper of heroic hearts,

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

... Ulysses, Alfred Tennyson, 1833

Sedetik Lebih

Setiap nafas yang dihembus
Setiap degupan jantung
Aku selalu memikirkanmu

Dalam sedar dibuai angan
Dalam tidur dan khayalan
Aku selalu memikirkanmu

Ternyata ku perlukan cinta dari dirimu sayang
Barulah terasa ku bernyawa

Kasihku ku amat mencintai kamu
Kerana kau beri erti hidup
Ku kan terus mencinta sedetik lebih selepas selamanya

... Sedetik Lebih, Anuar Zain

Ku harungi

Hari demi hari

Bersama wajah tak mungkin akan kembali

Tapi hati masih tak terima

Ditinggalkan sengsara

Keraguan ini bukanlah padamu

Perasaan hati masih rindu

Kekalutan ini hanyalah untukku

Tercari-cari bayangan mu

Tak sanggup aku kehilangan

Kehilanganmu...

... Perpisahan, Anuar Zain
