Unrequited Love
A Jarkatan guy’s love
Filled to the brim
Running over to a certain Diosaka
Only her under his sun
Could seam his torn heart
This Diosaka’s love
Was already harbored in another’s heart
With vows in marriage
It wasn’t possible for her to fall again
But zikra’s heart was in intense heat
To win over the already won love
To no avail
He burned red hot for her
But her rejecting stand
Pulled his falling
To a tether end
And he decided to fight it
Fire by fire
He embraced himself with petrol
To quench the burning emotion
Out of his hot heart
With a match for his ‘match’
He was kissed by tongues of flames
And died by the fire of love
This poem was harvested from a sad story in the daily paper, where an Indonesian guy from Jakarta tried his best to win love of a married lady, but her unyielding drove him mad to dose himself with petrol and stroke a match. He died in the fire.
