I can’t be without you

"Sejuk"
"Ye la. Dah hujan sepanjang hari. Pakai sweater"
"Tak nak"
"Pakai la"
"Tak nak"
"Nah. Pakai abang punya"
"Tak nak"
"Sini, duduk atas riba abang"
"Abang…"
"Hmm"
"Tengok la kita. Jangan baca buku"
"Kenapa ni?"
"Abang tu"
"Kenapa?"
"Abang la"
"Ara nak kopi? Teh ke?"
"Tak nak"
"Coklat panas?"
"Tak nakkk"
"Okey, okey. Jangan marah"
"Mmm…"
"Rindu ke?"
"Rindu…"
"Banyak mana?"
"Banyak-banyak"
"Banyak mana tu?"
"Banyak laaa. Abanggg"
"Ye la, ye la. Abang tanya je"
"Abang…"
"Kenapa? Nak ajak tidur dah?"
"Ha'a"
"Jom mandi"
"Hehe dukung"


and the night falls to an end...

I can be without anyone
but not without you.
You twist my heart, dwell in my mind
and fill my eyes, you are my joy.
I can’t be without you.
You are my sleep, my rest, 
the water I drink.
You are my clarity, my dignity, my world.
