Father

By request: Hendi

One day when you are no longer here.

All I’ll have is memories. 

The pain of loss will be great. 

Patched up by laughter we shared. 

The lessons you taught me.

Will never be forgotten.

The pain of the loss will forever remain.

Yet each time I think back.

I know you’ve been great. 

At times we argued and fought. 

We didn’t always agree, that wouldn’t be fun. 

Instead, we shrugged it off and moved on.

I too am trying my best to move forward. 

However, for now, I am stuck in the past. 

I can only stare at photographs. 

I know this pain will not last. 

But right now, at this moment I am at a loss. 

Check in on me some time to make sure I am not lost. 

Ayah

Suatu hari ketika kau tak lagi di sini.

Yang aku miliki hanyalah kenangan.

Rasa sakit karena kehilangan akan sangat besar.

Dibalut oleh tawa yang kami bagikan.

Pelajaran yang telah kau berikan kepadaku

Tidak akan pernah terlupakan.

Rasa sakit karena kehilangan akan tetap ada selamanya.

Namun setiap kali ku pikir kembali.

Aku tahu engkau hebat.

Terkadang kita berdebat dan bertengkar. Kita selalu setuju, itu tidak menyenangkan.

Sebaliknya kita mengabaikannya dan kemudian melupakan.

Aku juga mencoba yang terbaik untuk maju.

Namun untuk saat ini, aku terjebak di masa lalu.

Aku hanya bisa menatap foto-fotomu.

Aku tahu rasa sakit ini tidak akan bertahan lama.

Tapi sekarang, saat ini aku merasa sangat kehilangan.

Kunjungi aku kapan-kapan untuk memastikan bahwa aku tidak tersesat.

Zsolt Zsemba

Zsolt Zsemba has worn many different hats. He has been an entrepreneur, and businessman for over 30 years. Living abroad has given him many amazing experiences in life and also sparked his imagination for writing. After moving to Canada from Hungary at the age of 10 and working in a family business for a large part of his life. The switch from manufacturing to writing came surprisingly easily for him. His passion for writing began at age 12, mostly writing poetry and short stories. In 1999, the chance came to write scripts. Zsolt took some time off from his family business to write in Jakarta Indonesia for MD Entertainment. Having written dozens of soap operas and made for TV movies, in 2003 Zsolt returned to the family business once more. In 2018, he had the chance to head back to Asia once again. He took on the challenge to be the COO for MD Pictures and get back into the entertainment business. The entertainment business opened up the desire to write once more and the words began to flow onto the pages again. He decided to rewrite a book he began years ago. Organ House was reborn and is a fiction suspense novel while Scars is a young adult drama focused on life’s challenges. After the first two books, his desire to write not only became more challenging but enjoyable as well. After having several books completed he was convinced to publish them for your enjoyment. Zsolt does not tend to stay in one specific genre but tends to lean towards strong female leads and horror. Though he also has a few human interest books, he tends to write about whatever brews in his brain for a while.
