sunday is gloomy
my hours are slumberless
dearest the shadows
i live with are numberless
little white flowers
will never awaken you
not where the black coach
of sorrow has taken you
angels have no thought
of ever returning you
would they be angry
if i thought of joining you
gloomy sunday
sunday is gloomy
with shadows i spend it all
my heart and i have decided
to end it all
soon there’ll be flowers and prayers
that are said i know
but let them not weep
let them know
that i’m glad to go
death is no dream
for in death i’m caressing you
with the last breath of my soul
i’ll be blessing you
gloomy sunday
dreaming
i was only dreaming
i wake and i find you asleep
in the deep of my heart dear
darling i hope
that my dream never haunted you
my heart is telling you
how much i wanted you
gloomy sunday
gloomy sunday
(‘gloomy sunday’ performed by sarah brightman)
Pagi hari nan cerah di jogging track taman tebet. Berjalan pelahan dalam iringan lagu-lagu cheesy Shayne Ward. Edi menepuk punggungku saat berlari melewatiku satu putaran penuh.
Siang menjadi nyata. Hanya bosan yang terasa. Ingin pergi berjalan-jalan entah kemana. Tapi yang ada hanya rasa malas yang menguasai badan untuk tidak berjauh-jauh dari kasur. Suasana sunyi mencekam kamar-kamar kost yang gelap tak berisi. Ketika akhirnya berhasil mengumpulkan niat untuk pergi, hujan turun menghadang di depan pintu.
Terduduk di kursi teras, menatap titik-titik hujan menghantami bumi.
Bosan kembali menyerang, memaksa masuk kembali ke dalam. Memandangi pintumu yang diam dalam gelap.
my heart is telling you
how much i wanted you
gloomy sunday
