Moetry Collection in English
Swollen Soul, By Muid Latif
Every grass and soil that I walk,
Keeps me going around unwanted circle,
The direction now seems so unclear,
Cloud my eyes with insecurity.
You once touch me with tenderness,
Now left is just sorrow and disagreement,
With this body becoming more bitter,
You seek and reach others balmy.
At night I stare into your starry face,
Without realize you let time consume us,
Where were you when I needed you?
Why did I stay and still hope?
Through those black clouds in the air,
Shower thousands of misery and soreness,
I shed tears because my endeavor collapses,
Through such odd I risk this forbidden affair.
The red tides are raising high towards me,
For each seconds eating my solitary,
Condemned and dismissed from dreams,
Put me in such damage and clueless.
Hence here I am in this vacant field of hope,
Waiting in the shadows so my heart would untie,
Love become so dishonest and unfair,
As I look upon myself how can a life be so despair.

Rescue Me, By Muid Latif
From this crowded surroundings I seek you,
I saw you stood still but could not reach you.
I came to know my devastating truth so I broke down.
Went out of my mind that I could no longer breathe,
The hope that I found before was fading away,
Then people became fear of me and shred my door.
I became a cold sculpture surrounded by deep water,
An art piece nice to set eyes on but fear to touch
My heart was wrecked without soul.
All of a sudden someone tosses me a penny,
With a wish I reminisce beautiful years I once had,
I felt affectionate but only for a moment.
Will someone rescue me from such devastation?
Will a fairy grand me my wish to be able to live again?
Will I ever be free again?

Miss Ciggy, By Muid Latif
Here we go again Mr. Heart says,
Pumping every millimeters of tar,
Contenting my empty lungs,
You released me from despair.
I met you in my teen days,
As if we’re are lovers,
From left-over of my fathers,
Till the years of my trying times.
You gave me feelings I longed for,
You control me from silent whisper,
Until there are times I tried hard to forget you.
Make me want you.
And I will never forget you,
For you who broke my heart,
On my golden age,
Coughing you to get out free,
In regret that I ever met you.

Here In My Heart, By Muid Latif
You made my soul running so carefree,
You made me to know and understand the beauty of relationship,
Even though our relationship is in the world’s suicidal cliff,
You and I take this chance to learn and let the love flows in us.
I never find the one that is true as much as you,
Because all of my life, I’ve been waiting to long for this,
For you to come and bring me sunshine,
And a person who makes me happy,
I never felt so happy and joyful,
Because to be with you, was the best thing I had ever enjoyed,
And to hear you say I love you each moment when I look into your eyes,
There’s nothing more to say rather to feel blessed and thankful.

A Heart That Speak, By Muid Latif
Was that brown eyes that caught my heart?
Was the smile mesmerizing my mind?
The elongated conversation we both had,
Was tremendous as we get closer every moment,
Your kiss was so sweet, tender caressing this lip,
Makes me fall deep in ecstasy.
Could it be another fiction from a movie?
Should I neglect my heart and pass a precious life,
That I thought I could have given more space,
of promising future for both of us?
Or shall I deem to find the truth?
Or forever gone before the sunshine.

Am I A Substance? By Muid Latif
Lately I felt in fear and apprehension,
As the bitter breeze batters me,
A part of me begin to fall.
A reckless heart wails with agony,
For what this heart yet feel is nonentity,
My endurance weakens and became blurry.
Absurd it may sound but I’m blunt,
Through an ambiguous mind,
Integrity begins to wonder.
The reality seems to be unbalance,
For a soul condense faraway distance.
Set in a parallel creating solitary.

Pedih, By Muid Latif
Pedih, satu perasaan ulung membara jiwa,
Melilit tangisan pilu membanjiri sanubari,
Tertanya kesangsian yang meretakkan harapan,
Kerna kesilapan aku kecilkan duniaku sepi.
Cinta senang dihembus kata,
Entah mana pula perasaan terkira,
Disudut ini goyang pemikiran,
Pendirianku dulu kukuh kian pudar.
Hadirmu dimana?
Pelukmu dimana?
Mata mindaku kepadamu mana?
Hilang perasaanku dimana?
Pengorbananku memberi seribu keikhlasan,
Saat ku memerlukanmu mengiringi kehampaan,
Kau getarkan keraguanmu dengan ungkitanku,
Sering salah tingkah lakuku dimatamu.
Kini ku mengulangi kesilapanku,
Kerana impianku yang diidamkan musnah,
Lalu aku pergi membawa diri,
Hanya kekosongan duka mengiringi destinasiku.

Seru Sari Lukis, Oleh Muid Latif
Wahai tangan yang diberi, tangan untuk menarikan kayu hikmat,
Wahai mata yang mampu melihat, mencari dan menerokai,
Wahai minda yang mampu mencipta, mencari dan melahirkan keindahan,
Wahai yang Maha Esa, berikanlah kami ilham dan kesabaran agar kami dapat berkarya.

Sedar, Oleh Muid Latif
Bermain tanglong di Sungai Ara,
Syahdunya ‘Bulan’ bersinar mekar,
Bijak ‘Mata’ kini belayar di maya lara,
kerna disitu cendekiawan bergerak lebar.
Dahulunya warna dijahit harmoni,
kini dikoyak iri hati sesama diri,
Dahulunya satu arah kini kian bercabang,
sudah mula retak bebas ‘melarang’.
Muhibah runtuh ’suara’ pudar,
kerna korupsi satu malaya menyerah,
Ceritera cinta uniti kini kabur,
hakikatnya bimbingan luntur menjadi parah.

Rintihan Sayu Di Petang Disember, Oleh Muid Latif
Di suatu senja seketika dahulu,
kulihat awan berarak suram,
angin membelai diriku berlalu,
disudut hatiku cintaku beransur pergi.
Ada tangan diberi, tak dapat kugenggam,
ada suara diberi, tak dapat kukata,
ada mata ku tak dapat melihat jauh,
ada telinga, ku tak dapat mendengar rintihannya.
Apabila cinta datang semula mencariku,
ku terperangkap mengenang kisah yang menghantuiku,
mimpi-mimpi yang kuidamkan berlari jauh,
hati duka jiwaku meronta untuk berbicara,
tatkala ku terpaksa maju di suatu perjalanan,
kabur dan jauh yang masih belum pasti.
