A N O D Y N E

tersebab hari ini

Ketika di lobby
Kusandarkan bahu ini
Lekat-lekat ke dalam diri

Ketika di tembok segalanya kosong
Dan memutih
Kusematkan ketabahan paling dalam
Dada yang terhempas di atas pasang surut
Iga-iga yang berkarat
Otot yang meranum
Dan kepala yang berulang kali terbentur pada ciuman perpisahan
Tidak semanis lolipop
Ini februari
Akankah sama seperti november kemarin

Menabur bunga di sepanjang jalan
Menuju rumahmu, getir luka seperti terbangun

Katamu
Kita sudah siap menyendiri
Memeluk kebisingan yang sebentar lagi mengambang dalam ingatan
Maka biarkan ia menyebar
Menuntun urat nadimu
Belajar untuk melepaskan
Menyambut yang hendak pergi
Sebab semesta
Tempat sebaik-baiknya kau kembali

Segalanya masih dingin
Kupecahkan satu-persatu yang mengkristal
Di tengah garis edar bumi
Ada yang mengental di udara
Senja tinggal separuh
Seolah berusaha memahami rahasia
Sepasang mata yang sembab
Melebur dalam gerimis
Dan doa

Jekardah, February 2019

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...
