beautiful, eh?"... it pained me to close the cab door on you, to see your uncomprehending eyes, pained me much more than the sight of you waving to me, waving me off, as if to say, ‘I’ll be all right on my own’— of course you will — but of course."beautifully penned by my idol ...
and here's another one ...
"... it's late, we have work tomorrow, you close the door carefully, it shuts with a soft click, you are gentle with doorknobs, you have always been gentle; and patient; and kind; before I leave, I touch the door, I stretch my fingers out, press my palm against it, maybe your back is now leaning against the door, maybe your back was always a closed door; I leave behind a mark only moonlight could make visible, a transparent layer of skin, tomorrow's dust."
and my all time favourite ...
... I would rather miss you like this than keep missing what I want you to be.
would all these sound as nice in Bahasa?
