SUKUR HARI INI

 Terima kasih untuk hari ini

Hari cuti kita semua dari basah kuyup dan kehujanan,

ribut klakson dan kualitas udara yang rendah,

tangga yang panjang di stasiun 

dan pengisian ulang tiket KRL atau MRT,

banjir dan gas air mata di Kanjuruhan belum reda 

dan kita tidak cukup tidur menyaksikan siaran duka dan tangis

 

Terima kasih untuk hari ini

Hari menjadi lebih sabar ketika mesti bangun pagi sekali

seorang penjual roti yang sopan memanggilku

dari balik pagar setinggi kepala

ia sodorkan roti-roti kehidupan

tubuh kudus berisi kelapa juga kacang hijau

 

Terima kasih untuk hari ini

Hari untuk menghitung pengeluaran mingguan sebelum

saldo menjadi lebih tegas terhadap tabungan

Lalu aku melihat isi lemari

yang kudapati adalah brokoli beserta ulat pada kaos polos

jahitan asal seorang penjahit amatir pada tumpukan foto

yang baru saja dicetak, juga DVD Thick as Thieves

di antara poster The Temper Trap dan kain batik

 

Terima kasih sebab hari ini

aku menjadi lebih malas menanggapi kemarahan di media sosial,

tulisan manis terhadap citra buruk polisi

sebagai usaha yang sia-sia, dan seorang teman yang berjanji

menawarkan simpati juga kamera analog buatan Rusia

namun sebetulnya tinggal wacana saja

 

Terima kasih sebab hari ini

Aku tidak berusaha repot menyenangkan orang lain,

tidak mengirim suka pada konten yang mengincar validasi.

Choices

There will always be the first time for everyone. The first time to hear, the first time to feel, the first time to move, the first time to breathe and cry, the first time to drink, the first time to eat, the first time to respond, the first time to play, the first time to play together and solve the very own problem, the first time to enter school, the first time to teach, the first time to talk and engage with numerous audience, the first to be and do anything. . .till it becomes one day. . .the thing that was hard and challenging, could become a piece of cake. It takes courage, it takes sweat and tears, it takes sleepless nights, it takes restless days, it takes commitment, it takes everything. Maybe it takes your happiness away either. It may seem scary and it may seem crazy. It requires self and stress management. I always have choices amongst these options. I commence to reflect. Back then, I love to  compare people, wether it would be worth it or not at all. I compare A to B...

The Most Precious Thing

To my fiancé, thank you for being a strong man even when hard times still hit that hard. Your 'cegil' is so proud of you. Dear Dadda K, to be with you has taken me to love myself more. Thank you for being gentle and listening to me and us. I have never felt less as a woman because I finally found my real power. Through the peaks and valleys, through the lengthy journey, I do believe the right train will never pass us by. In this horse year, let's be more kind to each other. Let kindness be the beginning of our story. Dear Daddy K, there were moments I might be afraid of losing us. The worries somehow spiraling. At the end I have to decide and take an action of not letting the hassle consuming me more. The peace, positivity, and tenderness are greater. This morning I looked at myself through the mirror. I asked, "who is this girl I see?" It instantly brought me back to you. I am loved, and your actions are the living proof. It's not only a love letter. I wrote ...

The Awakening of New Energy

This one week, my mind buzzed. I know I had a lot to express. I always feel the urge to talk to people and barely know when to stop. I love creating world with words. Words are playground to me. Sometime I could slide, hop, roll forward, slither, or simply sit and watching people passing by. It's not a bout fun, but it's the awareness of creating more and more. I will try to invest 1 hour each day to write, to think, to get lost, to be found, to express, and write again. Over and over. I hope there will be more people connect and read me. Insya Allah 🤍
