What if you were 75 and I were 9?

"Sifters"

Sound is a wave like a wave on the ocean
Moon plays the ocean like a violin
Pushing and pulling from shore to shore
Biggest melody you never heard before
What if I were the night sky
What if I were the night sky
Here's my lullaby
My lullaby to leave by, lullaby to leave byIf I were the night

What if we hadn't been born at the same time?
What if you were 75 and I were 9?
Would I come visit you?
Bring you cookies in an old folks home
Would you be there alone?
And when the late summer lightning fires off in your arms
Will I remember to breathe? No, I never will
And if I could convince you that I mean you no harm
Just want to show you how not to need
If I were the night sky
Here's my lullaby
My lullaby to leave by
If I were the night

What if we hadn't been each other at the same time?
Would you tell me all the stories from when you're young and in your prime?
Would I rock you to sleep?
Would you tell me all the secrets you don't need to keep?
Would I still miss you?
Or would you then have been mine?

Sound is a wave like a wave on the ocean
Moon plays the ocean like a violin

Masjid Muhammad Cheng Hoo

Masjid Muhammad Cheng Hoo Pasuruan 13 November kemarin, aku ke Pasuruan untuk menghadiri acara pernikahan sepupuku. Awalnya nggak ada rencana buat ikut tapi mumpung ada libur 3 hari (Senin, Selasa, Rabu) jadi aku memutuskan untuk ikut sekalian nemenin ibu biar ga pergi sendirian. Aku dan Ibu berangkat dari Jogja hari Jumat malam ke Lamongan, ke rumah mbah dulu. Baru deh Hari Minggunya pagi-pagi banget jam 6, seluruh rombongan berangkat ke Pasuruan.
