aku adalah angin...

as free as the wind...

aku.


kamu.


dua dunia yang sungguh berbeza. bahkan kita tak bicara dalam bahasa yang saling terfahami. walau masih mendongak ke arah bulan yang sama, warna cahayanya nyata terlihat beda.


kemudian pada satu titik, jalan hidup kita tiba-tiba bersinggungan. lalu tanpa sedar, aku dan kamu menjadi kita. kita yang gembira tapi derita. entah apa bezanya. yang aku tau, kamu seperti bayang-bayang yang selalu ada, terlalu dekat namun juga begitu jauh tak tersentuh.


dan seperti aroma kopi panas, wangimu menggoda. pekatnya sempurna dengan sedikit sentuhan rasa tidak terlalu manis, aroma eksotik dari sepotong cinnamon, dan kelembutan whipped cream bercorak hati di atasnya. membuat aku ketagih menghirupmu lagi dan lagi. tapi terlalu sayang aku tak mampu menghabisi kamu.


kau. ceritaku. kisahku.


separuh hidupku. penyimpan rahsiaku.


itu dulu.


kini,


kau... masa silamku.


kerana titik itu telah terpecah. menjadi jisim halus yang mustahil tercantum kembali.




kau... sejarahku. aku... sejarahmu.

it used to be my sanctuary...
a place to remind me that there's someone who loves me no matter what...
every single word written was like a beautiful love song to my ear.
every
pouring emotions was just like food to my soul.



but now it's hers...

i'm just a fool for believing and trying.
coz he never loved me afterall...

letih melayan permainan takdir
sementara menanti 'detik' yang entah bila kan hadir

hati dan lidah mengalun zikir
sedang otak senak diasak fikir

apa benar pada setiap perjalanan penuh getir
dihujungnya pasti ada bahagia terukir?

it hurts less u know.
it hurts less when there is one less person bleeding.
it hurts less when there is one less person without a scar.

it hurts less when u were there beside me.
there to remind me that the past can't hurt me anymore.
there to show me that there is a future worth fighting for.
u, just being there.
but no more.

yesss it hurts to finally see u're with someone else.
but it hurts less u know.
less than when u were with me, and i could do nothing about it.
less than to realize the fact that u're closing in just when i'm about to open up.

damn it hurts.
but it hurts less now...



When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you

Sometimes when all your dreams may have seen better days
And you don't know how or why, but you've lost your way
Have no fear when your tears are fallin'
I will hear your spirit callin'
And I swear I'll be there come what may

When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you

I will come to you

'Cause even if we can't be together
We'll be friends now and forever
And I swear that I'll be there come what may
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you

We all need somebody we can turn to
Someone who'll always understand
So if you feel that your soul is dyin'
And you need the strength to keep tryin'
I'll reach out and take your hand

I'll reach out and take your hand

Oh I will come to you
When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you

Oh I will come to you
Oh I will come to you

I will come to you,
Oh I will come to yo
u


no...
nobody will ever come to u.
u're completely on your own.

dulu
saat waktu semakin suntuk
kau masih sibuk mencari petunjuk

kini
saat hati mula beralah
takdir telah pun berubah



usah dikesal
kerana kau yang cari pasal!

i found mike’s fb account today, and was so shocked to find out that she’s married. mike, my so-called bff is married and i knew nothing about it. i sent her a message (via fb) and sms-ed her mobile. late at night, she texted me back :


“dah kawin daa..mana tau?”


mad. sad. hell i dunno what i feel actually. i just couldn’t stop crying till now. suddenly, i asked myself…


what is it that most pple strive for in life?


the one thing above all else than this material world yang penuh kepalsuan we live in? maybe although a lot of us might try to deny it, it is the comfort and security of a family or whoever we cared for above all else, kannn? i mean, family in this sense tak semestinya related by blood. having blood ties doesnt mean u're a family. bapak bunuh 3 orang anak? abang rogol adek? no. it’s not family. family means perasaan kasih sayang, pengorbanan, care and devotion to each other above all else, termasuklah persahabatan. it is a bond that cannot easily be broken.


and i asked myself another questions. what is ‘failure’ to the pple under ur watch or pple u care for? is ‘failure’ really the fact that they can get hurt? that they die on while they are under ur watch?


think about it, we desire companionship, frens, lovers. we are social creatures that thrive on the company of others. we are damaged in heart and mind when we are deprived from others. kita menjadi self-destructive and fatalistic in nature becoz we are unable to connect ourselves to others. so how can it not be that in all the things we do, all the things we work for whether money or power, in the end it is the desire to be in the company of others that we desire the most?


so, what would failure to these pple mean? i used to think that its the fact that they will be hurt, that some will die. i've beaten myself in some nights becoz of this. but apa yg berlaku hari ini made me realise, since the world is full of hurt and death, there is no way that i can prevent hurt from anyone, or death to others. no… that would mean it cannot be a failure for me.


failure would mean that i stopped giving a damn for pple, stopped giving a damn for my frens and family. in the world so full of pain and torment, the last thing i should do to the pple i care for is to STOP giving a damn. they would hurt, and unless i can prevent it, they can die. dan adatnya, most pple, all they desire above all else is a someone who would care for them and comfort them in their time of need.


sometimes all it takes is one person to give a damn about someone. to not let anyone be left behind, no matter what the cost. that's what family is about isn't it? that’s what frenship is all about, rite?


never let anyone be left behind. never stop giving a damn about someone. it is the most painful thing u could ever do to a person. it is the greatest failure u can even do to someone.


never let go of hands that hold on to u. never turn ur back on the pple that would do the same too.


never.


ever.




bukan mudah
berakhir tanpa noktah

rasa tak terluah
dendam menjulang sumpah

aku?
kamu?
siapa salah?



diam
bukan bererti tak apa-apa
atau baik-baik saja
atau tak pernah merasa marah
atau merasa terlalu kisah

diam
lantaran tak bisa melakukan apa-apa
atau bilang kalau baik-baik saja
bukan juga tiada amarah
kerana bukan kamu yang memiliki dia
tapi dia yang memiliki kamu

dia dan dia
kini mereka keduanya!!!

old wounds never go away do they? they always leave scars behind. walaupun aku merasakan they are gone, but everytime sebenarnya i touch them, i feel them. they are always there, they have always been there and will always be there. be there to bring back the memories of past pain and hurt. and the worst thing is... it will always hurt.


and these scars of mine, bukan sikit. sangat banyak. i try hard to hide it, and bear it all like a great superwoman. but oh, u can see it? well maybe i'm just not good enough. only God knows how i try looking away from them, i try removing them (it's only makes things worse, dan itulah yang paling menyakitkan sebenarnya,), i try everything just so i dont have to remember what went behind those scars. sumpah aku cuba. tapi tak kira mcmana pun the scars tetap ada di situ. it is there whether i want it to be or not. and there is nothing i can do to erase it. no, i could never wash it all away. well… at least not completely.


agaknya, that's what scars are for; they are there to serve as a reminder of things long past, things that i painfully bled from, things that hurt sooo freaking bad. dan setiap kali melihat someone else hurts the way i did, bleeds in tears and asked why to a Being that gives answers few can understand, the scars are what reminds me of what happens when i was too slow to avoid the bullet, and when i didnt dress the wound in time… it is quick to hurt, slow to heal.


yesss, the scars may eventually heal… faded but never forgotten. it's the way its supposed to be. never to be forgotten.


God have mercy if i ever forgot my scars.

God forgive me if i ever do.
