Sejak kepergian sang Raja Pop, Michael Jackson, yang serba mendadak dan misterius, entah kenapa semua tentang dia yang kuketahui selalu memenuhi benakku. Tak ingin tertinggal satu pun berita baru yang bisa kudapatkan. Sejujurnya, aku bukanlah penggemar setianya. Penggemar yang selalu mengikuti perjalanan karirnya, juga kehidupan pribadinya, dari awal hingga akhir, atau apa pun itu.

Aku hanyalah aku yang tidak terlalu mengidolakan siapa pun. Tetapi, sejak mengetahui tragisnya kepergian sang Raja yang sangat menyedihkan, sungguh membuatku pilu. Aku
merasa kehilangan. Sedih, dan kadang gemetar. Entah mengapa, aku juga tidak tahu... Hari demi hari terus bergulir. Lima hari sudah Jacko pergi. Dan, aku semakin tak bisa untuk tidak mendengarkan sekali pun lagu-lagunya.

Kini, satu per satu lagunya terngiang lagi di hati, di pikiran, dan di seluruh waktuku... Suaranya, liriknya, musiknya, menyayat hati... Membuatku terdiam sejenak dari pekerjaanku. Selamat jalan Jacko, dunia kehilangan dirimu... Jerit tangis dunia dan ribuan bunga mengiringi kepergianmu...



Heal The World

There's a place in your heart, and I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try, you'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel, there's no hurt or sorrow

There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space, make a better place

Heal the world make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying if you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me

If you want to know why, there's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong, it only cares for joyful giving if we try
We shall see in this bliss, we cannot feel fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always love's enough for us growing
So make a better world, make a better world

And the dream we were conceived In will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life wound this earth crucify
Its soul though it's plain to see this world is heavenly be God's glow

We could fly so high let our spirits never die in my heart
I feel you are all my brothers create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears see the nations turn
Their swords into plowshares

We could really get there if you cared enough for the living
Make a little space, to make a better place
