Poetry by Heartofdarkness (Selamet Raharjo)
Medan, 11 October 2021
I don't know why I was born
I don't know what my life's purpose is
I always question it every time
But I never found the answer
I feel life is unfair
I feel life is a curse
I envy those who are happy with their wealth
I'm envious to see that they can buy nutritious food so easily
I blame God for my presence in the world
I blame my parents for the birth I never wanted
Now I know what my purpose in this world is
Now I know that I have to fight it all
yes, poverty, injustice, and even this destiny. I have to face everything bravely. I have to fight the world that constantly oppresses me. That's the purpose of my life right now.
