Breakfast at Tiffany's*



Semisal yang kita pertemukan di sini waktu itu
Bukan kenang-kenang yang berasal dari sumber terkasih
Saat kita memulai menamai benih itu
Sebagai jam-jam yang menderas
Bagai haluan yang tidak ingin ditikungi
Barangkali mestinya kita bertanya hendak
Tumbuh kemana benih itu
Tanpa dada yang menabur keluasan langit
Pada doa dan mantel pertemuan yang kita saksikan
Atau baru saja benih itu mengambil tanganku
Menunjukmu bertanya sesekali tentang kesabaran
Hanya milik yang mencipta segala

1
Tentang pertemuan
Aku menunggu
lalu mengantarmu dengan cemas

2
Kamu membuka kaca jendela
barangkali untuk menyapa pertemuan
dari jarak yang hampir dilupakan
dan aku membawa pertemuan kita
di meja yang raib dalam tulisan

3
Benih pertemuan kemudian berlari setelah tumbuh
Ke tempat kita yang tidak akan menemukan apa saja
Atau saat yang mempertemukan kita
Pada pertemuan yang deras mengamini
yang pasang seperti air mata
cukup untuk mengatup segala gelisah saat kita mempertayakan
cukupkah pertemuan ini melunasi kecemasan

4
Aku akan menjemputmu di pertemuan lain
Waktu dan jarak dari pertemuan
Yang aku pikirkan bukan benih itu akan tumbuh menjadi kesakitan
Atau perpisahan yang sangsi menunggu pertemuan
Dan kita diam memandang jalan dibawa waktu
Tinggal kita mesti memilih
Menghitung yang tidak ada dalam pertemuan

5
Aku sanggup membawa pertemuan itu kemana saja
Saat kamu sudah rapi mengemasi perpisahan
Dan kita menyantapnya setelah sarapan
Dan es krim sudah mencair


Selamat menemu pertemuan

 *sebuah film yang diperankan oleh Audrey Hepburn dan Georges Peppard di tahun 60an

Writing As A Love Language

:Vin Elk, Ars Magna, & Lady Loved* Lately, I have enjoyed writing a lot. Writing worked on me the way Dumbledore did while he was in Penseive, so he could experience his memories through other perspectives. He uses it to siphon the excess thoughts from his mind, pour them into the basin, and examine them at leisure. Writing has helped me to untangle my mind, examine what to deliver, communicate the messages verbally and non-verbally, and reflect on how this writing will evoke certain emotions or moods. Writing becomes the mirror that provides insight into who I am, what I desire, what I experience, what I value, and what I am not into. Writing becomes the language that deliberates my inner peace. On another level, writing could answer the quest that dwells in my mind.  I am glad to share what is significant for me right now. Being loved by the right person and people is heaven, and so is being respected, prioritized, supported, desired, and understood. The right person and peop...

The Essence of Learning New Things Every Day

Everyone basically has opportunities to learn something new every day. They learn to get a new skill or to let go of what doesn't belong to them. The cycle comes and goes. Learning something new is not only a shortcut to improve one's life, but also to make one's meaningful, and their presence could make the simplest form of change.  I was once asked about the skills I have other than teaching. I confidently responded to them that I have enough skills in writing, photography, and cooking. While doing my responsibilities in the class, I value the three areas will be beneficial for me in professionalism. I have unlimited resources to access them if one day, I could only choose one area to support me for a living.  As an individual who has to make a move every day, I see learning as a potential way that brings us to become more selfless. We can learn new things every day as long as we have the courage and willingness to be a beginner. A beginner carries honesty since they have...

A One Year-Old Bonding

I was having a brief and light conversation with my boyfriend about how to create more memorable stories, create sparks in our relationship, and make better plans for our future. What I deeply appreciate about him is that he never ceases making plans for us as if he knows exactly where we're going, the potential issues we are going to face, how to cope with hard conversations, and many more. Reassurance, emotional support, and acts of service speak louder than just words. In lieu of the conversation, we had opposite points of view on how we would build healthy relationships and bondings in marriage while each of us is trying our best to achieve our goals. In addition, I am aware of his endeavors to listen more, to be more transparent in making decisions, to welcome discussions, to work collaboratively, and to articulate what we feel and what we think about assertively. We want to find the best route that could accommodate our needs in particular. There was a funny moment when I sud...
