a rose for the year 1998

hush!
she speaks the language of our heart.

unheard...
she cries why so many innocents killed

unseen...
her naked body raped with the blinded hope for peace

unspoken...
her smile shouted by the laughing of the hungers

will her smell ever reach our deepest desire again?
or we are all too busy...
to listen, to view, to speak the language of our heart?

Jerry S. Justianto
Winter 1998

Firstly, I wanted to make something jolly to close the year of 1998.  Honest, I really prepared something nice for all of us about the meaning of the Rose, about how romantic she is.  She is beautiful, and she speaks our language.  But then, her thorn, ironically,  stucked between my fingers, she woke me up to see the world. 
She asked me, "Do I deserve to be happy this year?"

Will I have my smell and my pain
when, destroyed, I go on sleeping
