At the Crossroads of Dilemma

I stand at the edge of a crossroads,

Jakarta calls me from one side,

with dreams and ambitions awaiting,

the life I long for—

money and success I need to survive.

But that desire dims as my fear grows,

mother lies weak, helpless,

what will happen if I leave,

abandoning her in the silence of her grief?

I’m torn, between dreams and duty,

can I step forward without looking back,

without guilt haunting me tomorrow,

when regret might knock on every passing second?

Yet, I need life,

I need sustenance, I need a future,

but my heart is scared,

scared she’ll be neglected,

scared of the day regret will come,

when it's too late to turn back and undo all I've done.

At this crossroads, I am trapped,

between chasing my dreams,

or staying to protect the fragile heart—

my mother, whom I cannot let fall apart.
