Moon Over My Obscure Little Town

    There are too many interesting, wonderful and heart-touching stories in Andrea Hirata's novel "Padang Bulan" (Moon Field) that I never get bored to read it again and again. But there is a fragment of story in this novel that could make me moved to rewrite it in this blog. It is about a wonderful poetry wrote by Andrea himself.
    One day Andrea was asked by his friend, Enong (Maryamah binti Zamzami) who has a literature homework from her English course.  Andrea agreed to help her, and then he started to tell his true feelings through words, as a representation of his heartache, his jealousy, his regret, and his fear to lose somebody that he loved.

Moon Over My Obscure Little Town

Stranger
Stranger
Someone stranger

Standing in a mirror
I can't believe what I see
How much love has been taken away from me

My heart cries out loud
Everytime I feel lonely in the crowd
Getting you out of my mind
Like separating the wind from the cloud

Afraid
Afraid

I'm so afraid
of losing someone I never have
Crazy, oh, crazy
Finding reasons for my jealousy

All I can remember
When you left me alone
Under the moon over my obscure little town
As long as I can remember
Love has turned to be as cold as December

The moon over my obscure little town
The moon over my obscure little town
