If We Could Bring You Back Again

If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We’d express all our unspoken love;
We’d have countless things to say.

If we could bring you back again,
We’d say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.

If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You’d know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.

바람에 지는 아련한 사랑
pa ra me ji neng a ryon han sa rang
飄搖曲折的愛情 逐漸隨風消逝
A vague love which disappears with a wind
風吹走那逝去的愛

별헤예 지듯 사라져가나
peor hae ye ji de sa ra chyo ka na
像星月般的沉入山澗
Would be gone as if a star falls?
為什麼離我遠去

천해를 괸들 못다할 사랑
chon hae rur kwein der mo da har sa rang
即使已經累積千年的感情痕跡
A love which would not end even if all the oceans are combined
我們的愛被上天所背棄

청상에 새겨 미워도 곱다
chong sang e sae kyo mi wo do kop da
猶如雋刻在晨霜中 縱然美麗也會逐漸消失
Is engraved on a blue skirt, which is mean but beautiful
心裡想著永遠部要恨你

높고 늘진 하늘이 나더러 함께 살자 하더라
nop ko ner jin ha ne ri na do ro ham ke sar ja ha do ra
我佇立在寬廣的穹蒼
The high and drooping heaven told me to live together
你曾向上天約定要和我相守到永遠

깊고 험한 바다로 살아 우닐 제 사랑은
kip ko hom han pa da ro sa ra u nier che sa rang un
遙望大海 我心隨著楚江
My love which will live and weep like a deep and rough sea
在這黑暗的世界裡

초강을 에워 흐르리
cho kang er e wo he re ri
流往海的深處消失
Will flow surrounding the Cho River
我們的愛將隨著河流漂向遠方

Wishing You....





and...




“Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.”

Biru... kamu ada bersamaku... di hari bahagia-mu...

Aku hilangkan rasa kecewa sejak dini hari itu,
Coba palingkan, seolah semua baik-baik adanya....
Itu bukan salahku... kamu pun tak menghendaki,
Apapun itu... saat ini aku hanya mau lihatmu tertawa...
Sinar mata yang aku damba tiap saat ada disitu..
Walaupun tanpa kudengar tawamu,
Tapi dapat kurasakan jiwamu tergetar oleh bahagia...
Rasakan kala diriku masih mencarimu... dambakanmu...

Terimakasih Allah,....
Kau panjangkan usianya...
Masih berikan cinta nya untuk ku satu....
Masih buatku tergelak dalam tawa,

Biru... hanya itu yang bisa ku ucap saat ini...
Terimakasih atas hadirmu di jiwaku ....

What is today? 22nd December...is it special day ?
Probably..I have no "particular" reason for it,
I hate today as well... as I'm "willing" to "bargain" my feeling and emotion..
after long "contradiction" inside my mind... finally nothing happened... since 12am till now 12:16pm.. I have no clue what should I do...
It's feels like..... big question mark in mind..keep asking over and over again, can I survive for longer time? with this kind of emotion sickness looks like taking me to the
hell's door....
Why should I bother with TODAY, 22nd December...
after few years past, after I realized... nothing will work out.. after I convinced my self.. everything just my dreams...

" I tied my self with one promise, that I know that I can't keep"
is it fair to just let go my promise and those dreams?
If everything so simple, I should have throw those bullshit to the dustbin, burn it...

It's too sad to be true... but...

Simply.....

I can't let it go....


---
It is an imperfect story,...
It is an endless journey...
It is an unforgivable sin...
but...
Is it wrong to have a dream? I couldn't ask for more....
only one dream....
even I know it's impossible to come true...
Let me stay with my dream...
as only with it I can survive till today....

Almost end of August...

Something bothering me, its endless.. and really putting my head on the rope... Hopeless, restless... Heaven said.. it's something beautiful, too wonderful to forget, too difficult to avoid, its a sickness.. I'm addicted on it... no way to run, no path to choose, no place to hide...
-- It's a clueless, try to get some lights, but what I got it's just a small blink of a ladybug.. and it will leave me anytime, even I couldn't catch it... couldn't depend on it...
I let my heart to keep open so that I can see what's going on around me... my heart lead me to a wrong direction, put me into a big wheel...stuck and tangled...

Maafkan Aku...

Aku yang tak pernah bisa lupakan dirinya yang kini hadir diantara kita
Namun kujuga takkan bisa menepis bayangmu yang selama ini temani hidupku

Maafkan aku menduakan cintamu berat rasa hatiku tinggalkan dirinya
Dan demi waktu yang bergulir disampingmu maafkanlah diriku sepenuh hatimu
Seandainya bila kubisa memilih...

Kalau saja waktu itu kutak jumpa dirinya mungkin semua takkan seperti ini
Dirimu dan dirinya kini ada dihatiku membawa aku dalam kehancuran

My First Love

Once in a while you are in my mind, I think about the days that we had...
And i dream that these would all come back to me,
If only you knew every moment in time...
Nothing goes on in my heart, just like your memories
How I want here to be with you...Once more
You will always gonna be the one...
And you should know how I wish I could have never let you go
Come into my life again...
Don't say no...
You will always gonna be the one in my life,
So true, I believe i can never find somebody like you
...My first love

Once in awhile you are in my dreams,
I can feel your warm embrace
And I pray that it will all come back to me...
If only you knew every moment in time
Nothing goes on in my heart, just like your memories
And how I want here to be with you once more...
You will always gonna be the one...
And you should know how I wish I could have never let you go...
Come into my life again,
Don't say no
You will always gonna be the one...
So true, I believe I could never find somebody like you,
Now and forever...





Dear someone who'll always be My 1st Love...

No Title...

I dream about, how it’s going to end, Approaching me quickly, Leaving a life of fear, I only want my mind to be clear, People making fun of me, For no reason but jealousy, I fantasise about my death, I’ll kill myself from holding my breath,

...

My suicidal dream, Voices telling me what to do, My suicidal dream, I’m sure you will get yours too,

...

Help me, comfort me, Stop me from feeling what I’m feeling now, The rope is here, Now I’ll find a use, I’ll kill myself, I’ll put my head in a noose...

...

Dreamin’ about my death, dream,Suicidal, suicidal, suicidal dream, I’m suicidal,Suicidal dream
