aku jatuh cinta

I choose to love you in silence

for in silence I receive no rejection.

I choose to love you in loneliness

for in loneliness no one owns you but I.

I choose to adore you from a distance

for distance will shield us from pain.

I choose to kiss you in the wind

for the wind is gentler than my lips.

I choose to hold you in my dreams

for in my dreams you have no end.

‘If you don’t understand my silence, how will you understand my words?’
