Frangipani
Oka Apr 2020
You blossomed me to life
Blushed me shades of rose and cerise
Oh dear let me brush my care
but promise me I won't pale
to the crescent moon and
leave me to bloom
This is for a new friend.

memory
Oka Dec 2018
I am not afraid of change
cause if you do
I needn't worry
my memories of you stay the same
hi there..a little gift for you

Love Is Ego
Oka Dec 2017
Two hearts are never one,
that's why a couple is two humans.
Our relationships are mutual ego feeding,
one craving attention and affection,
the other hungry for lust.
Make me your number one
and tonight I will accompany you til you are done.
237 · Oct 2020
Would you?
Oka Oct 2020
What am I?
A walking collection
of slowly fading memories
It is certain that I would let
all the stories that made me
slip by and run far far away
and for that I hope that you
would do me a favor :
Would you please remember me ?

I Woke Up Today
Oka Apr 2018
A huge step to mankind
microscopic to mine
heads up in reach of
today's warm rays
eyes shut, hostile towards
the blinding light
a new beginning, progression
towards an ideal vision
an age old quest in search of
means for eternal rest
Oka May 2018
Here we are again friend
Just as you always predict
sleepless but imaginative
but it's not tonight, dear pen
my eyes are sinking
and my brain is cosmic
flying
                 levels
                               beyond
                                               Infinity
                                                Struck.
                                   falling
                    flailing aimlessly
                                                    Searching for O2

Zombie
Oka May 2020
I became a zombie,
A mindless being
Drifting through life aimlessly
wanting to change something
Not capable of doing anything
And ended up with no one by my side
211 · Jan 2018
Let Me Be
Oka Jan 2018
It burdens me
the more I hold on to my innocence
an album of joy and cheer
devoid of concern and stress
Fool, immature, reckless
wild, untamed...destructive
names that would land
on my ears
Fiery gazes blazed upon me
yet, I let me be
211 · Aug 2018
Way back Home
Oka Aug 2018
The further you stray
the wiser you become
an enigma in a labyrinth
you get lost searching for
an answer, a clue, or even a hint
the further you stray
the blurrier the way back home is
211 · Aug 2018
Busy
Oka Aug 2018
24 hours chasing me
too early to seek shade
too late to hide in the shadows
no rest, no pause, always forward
stop
and I will be history
Ok ok ok ok ok

Never Ever Fall
Oka May 2019
I want you that looks at me
I want you that waits for me
Please let your care hold me
Let your love blossom again
“Never Ever Fall”
I wish upon our love in autumn
201 · May 2018
No Regrets
Oka May 2018
I have regrets
so do you...right?
Maybe a slip of tongue
that stabbed trust
A mishap, maybe slight klutziness
causing success to sigh
and leave for the exit
A life empty of regret
is non-humane
so is a life of regret
when choices are standing
opportunities are waving
possibilities waiting for you
and there you are
standing,
observing,
fascinated but scared,
"comfortable"
and chanting to yourself
Maybe it's not worth it
200 · Jan 2019
Today, tomorrow
Oka Jan 2019
Why should I answer tomorrow today?
My past is haunting me
My future is scaring me
Should I go here or there?
I don't know and no one would care
193 · Apr 2020
Sweet dreams
Oka Apr 2020
Rest in my arms
sink in my embrace
so I can dive into your dreams
and soar in your imagination
193 · May 2020
It's not fine
Oka May 2020
I can't stop thinking of our last moment
You were still the sweetest saying those harsh words
"Please, not yet..."
The words I repeated desperately
Even today, my lips can only tremble
And I will never be fine
What's a good break-up?
190 · Mar 2020
Always
Oka Mar 2020
Like writing on sand
I will not tire to remind you
Of your beauty
Cause I'm afraid that
Waves will wash the shore
189 · Sep 2019
One of these nights
Oka Sep 2019
Our story is a little star
among the vast galaxy
may the stars align for us to meet again
even if it’s just in our dreams
Hi there
184 · Jun 2020
Love poem
Oka Jun 2020
Gazing up to the starry sky
It's all beauty I can not deny
But it's not up where my thoughts fly
It has always been you, but I'm too shy
183 · Sep 2019
Transit
Oka Sep 2019
The city is asleep
and the rain decided to come by
No taxi or bus is gonna pick me up but
home is far away
183 · Aug 2018
Psychology
Oka Aug 2018
Is it in nature
that my personality has nurtured
to associate every concurring event, place, or person
with worry, anxiety and fear?
180 · Dec 2017
Yet, I'm happy...
Oka Dec 2017
I smile
reminiscing on our time together
I laugh
holding all of our cherished memories
I'm happy
collecting and building our love to persevere
I cry
knowing that you will break it, everytime

What it means to be free
Oka Sep 2019
I have never seen true freedom
among the living
Perhaps that is why
the symbol of liberty is a statue
Material shaped to be a lady with a torch? Yup sounds like freedom
180 · May 2020
Vintage
Oka May 2020
You and I are vintage
Unfit for a modern setting
And at best a distant memory
178 · May 2018
Why I quit achieving
Oka May 2018
I run, run and run
chasing what you have set
as insane as it seems, I complied
because I trusted you
and you wanted me to flourish
but tell me please
why the more I flourish
the emptier my growth becomes
177 · Nov 2020
My Sleep Routine
Oka Nov 2020
Turn on the night lamp
and slither in the bed
scroll through the apps
and let your lethargy extend
Don't worry about an alarm to tap
whether it's day or noon, you are eternally condemned
Just a rough draft
177 · May 2020
Happy Ending
Oka May 2020
Run away, with me
And the poltergeists and ghouls
We can wander through the darkness
And play by our own rules

Run away, with me
To a cavern shaped like home
Where we'll build our own forever
And never dance alone

-Marceline The Vampire Queen
I love adventure time alot
Oka Nov 2020
Would you like us to burn in
the summer heat,
blossom like the tulips in spring?
Or would you like us to be as clear
as the winter's ice,
fall like the leaves in autumn?
173 · Oct 2020
When I like a song
Oka Oct 2020
This hypnotizing melody
made me a dancing zombie
Because when I was filled with agony
You made depression sound so catchy
167 · May 2020
My Friend
Oka May 2020
All she has is the hollow shadow of an ex-lover
And all that bring her joy are cigarettes and retro city pop records
167 · Apr 2020
Online classes
Oka Apr 2020
I bathed down my screen rays more than the sun
I'm anxious of forgetting attendance
than not understanding ****
I'm not sick due to covid but I'm sick
of times new roman font size 12
166 · Aug 2018
Now What?
Oka Aug 2018
We have done something wonderful
for all these months we poured
our blood, sweat and tears
to achieve perfection
to claim honor
to find my purpose
but
after all we have accomplished
why do I feel my soul getting more hollow
why am I back to square one
a place thats curse I have thought to be undone
162 · Sep 2019
Angkasanya
Oka Sep 2019
Kaulah kenangan di langit tinggi
Bersinar terang tanpa mengetahui
Ada manusia menatapmu di bumi
menawarkan tangannya bukan memberi
meminta hangatmu walau tak berarti
Hanya doa yang bisa ia ucapkan dalam hati
Mari berjumpa lagi walau hanya sebatas mimpi
Kadang bingung kalau mau bikin puisi translate yang bahasa inggris. Ujung-ujungnya beda banget dari yang dibayangkan wkwk. Terima kasih red velvet telah memberi ilham.
160 · Aug 2019
Now never later
Oka Aug 2019
live for now never later
Be happy in the moment
But never cling on it foolishly
cause all it ever does is delay your misery
It’s been a while
158 · May 2020
I'm sorry
Oka May 2020
Perhaps I'm too lonely
Or too desperate
I hoped this would work
I'm so ashamed, what did I think?
I should have been more attentive
I should have been more caring
I'm sorry I'm not 6 foot tall
I'm sorry I'm not ripped with a six pack
I'm sorry that regret is flying
straight through you like a bullet
157 · Mar 2020
Evening
Oka Mar 2020
Cause I want to reach you
before the moon comes
to tell that I miss you
and see your smile
156 · May 2020
Full Moon
Oka May 2020
I will remember you
I will meet you again
I will draw you in my dreams every night
You and I, under the blue night sky
I promised you love
I will give you a moonlight in the darkest nights
I want to shine the world with this light
My Full moon
Inspired by Dreamcatcher's song Full Moon

Life
Oka Oct 2020
Would you like me
to live in agony
over the thought of
never meeting you,
or a life full of regret
because I lost you?
148 · Apr 2020
Listen love
Oka Apr 2020
It's like you found a missing piece
But really, you were never incomplete
I do not complete you dear
I remind you that you were whole all along
145 · Jul 2020
Form
Oka Jul 2020
Here is an offer,
a request to be a lover,
make my love prose longer,
add structure till it's form differ,
once a poem to a novel full of laughter.
143 · Apr 2020
Stranded
Oka Apr 2020
To see you walk alone
down the alley that we met
It aches my heart that yearns
To fill the void beside you
For those few meters
are oceans I have to sail
136 · Feb 2020
Rooftop
Oka Feb 2020
To the rooftop we went
Cause you wanted to see the stars
After sunset, no one shone for you
to your grumpy face I said that
I had the galaxy with me
the whole time
**** I'm so basic
134 · May 2020
Guilt
Oka May 2020
It is regrettable to not be a fond memory
But aches more when you contributed to tragedy
scoring scars on the soul and bruises on the body
Digging pits and holes deep inside the memory
Yes, time heals all wounds and forgiveness may wash guilt
But to know you can hurt always makes you feel like a *******
133 · May 2020
Self hate
Oka May 2020
In this mad, mad world
All we seek is composure
But no matter how old
Self hate is alcohol,
You're either drunk or sober
125 · Jun 2020
Back when
Oka Jun 2020
Take me back to a time, rewind
To an age, a moment
Where I would be scared
of ghost stories
And hopeful of the world
Oka Nov 2019
Like the flowing spring breeze
you will forever slip out
of my grasp
no matter how tight I hold
you will get away with ease
leaving me in wonder
of where you leave
121 · Jun 2020
Let's Leave
Oka Jun 2020
Lonely, lonely soul
Where should we go?
Life is done, a little dull
nothing but a burden to throw
Suicide is not the answer. However, that I question.
121 · Sep 2019
Escape
Oka Sep 2019
Run, run and run
away from that misery
Shout out loud and clear
Without a **** to the world
You are broken, a misfit they say
even though they deny the anguish within
117 · May 2020
Text me
Oka May 2020
I can write you
endless poems
About all the reasons
I fell for you yet
You can not
even text me back
116 · May 2020
A simple wish
Oka May 2020
I would **** to be
the lover in your
fantasies and wildest dreams
Call me a ******* but a hobby I have is falling with people I can never have
115 · Mar 2020
Knees
Oka Mar 2020
I run for you
to catch your heart
but will you stray further
If I rest my knees
and catch a breath?
