Pukul 12 malam
Aku belum menarik gorden 
Lampu masih menyala di luar
Kota ini tetap sibuk
Ia bergadang berhari-hari 
Meski tak ada yang bertanya
Sehatkah langitnya hari ini

Sebelum tidur
Aku terbaring menghadap sebuah ruangan dengan kaca setinggi tubuhmu
Air dari shower mengucur
Tapi katamu tak akan sampai melukai pundak

Aku menoleh ke jendela sekali lagi
Dan kau menjulurkan tangan yang kekar
Aku menunggu hujan di luar reda
Agar jelas terdengar detak jantungmu 

Aku tidak ingin benar-benar terpejam
Sebab menjelang pagi begitu cemburu
Sampai fajar terbit lebih awal
Dan menghisap sisa kantukku

Tapi aku tidak akan kemana-mana
Kecuali mendekam di pelukanmu saja.

Jakarta, Dec 28

Did we train our muscles? Did we respond to things around us with tranquility to gain the bigger picture? Did we respect ourselves with kindness and genuineness? Were we dare enough to say no when things weren't our cups of tea? 

Act of Service

Several times I asked my fiance why he rarely gave me flowers, chocolate, cake, and other things related to sweet things linked to Valentine's Day. And I think I got the answer now. I love to observe people, even somehow my awareness gone with no trace lol. I think it was rooted from his culture as well. He's patient enough to do house chores even if he had a lot to prepare for his works. Several times I went to his house, and I was amazed by how clean and neat it was. He has no housekeeper to assist him doing those stuff, he did it by himself. Tried to wipe my finger on his cabinet or tv, and I found nothing. You know, when we cooked together, he didn't ask and force me to help. He needed me to just watch him dancing while cooking, listen to him singing song he composed by himself, and to show off how he seasoned the food so it would taste incredibly delicious. He also taught me how to take care of white blouse and T-shirt effortlessly. Unfortunately, since I had a lot on ...
