Melepasmu

Melepasmu,

Seperti dipaksa mencongkel paksa kedua bola mata yang pernah menangkap gambar dirimu
Membuat tuli gendang telinga yang dulunya sanggup terima segala keluhmu
Menelan lidah dan segala kata yang pernah keluar dari mulutku
Mematahkan sendi sendi hingga tak lagi terasa ngilu mencintaimu
Mencabut paksa satu per satu tulang yang menyusun tubuhku
Membuang jantung yang pernah berdetak hanya untukmu
Merelakan tubuh kehilangan jiwanya yang hanya satu
Kini, aku siap terima pergimu

The Words

"Tunduk pada kebaikan yang mengecoh, sampai yang tepat jadi tak nampak. Kau jauh mencari-cari, tak pernah kau gali di dalam diri. Maaf. Terkadang kata-kata itu menyakiti, seperti tamparan. Ada tamparan yang untuk melukai, ada pula yang untuk menyadarkan. Maka dengan ini aku ingin merebut hatimu dari tangannya. Bukan maksud aku mencuri. Aku hanya ingin menyelamatkan hatimu untuk tidak diremasnya terus, supaya tidak dilukainya terus," - Zarry Hendrik

The Family Journey - Day 1

Jalan-jalan men! Yeee~ Jalan-jalan! Yeee~

Okey fellas, so here I am trying to be an amateur travel-writer. From Atria Hotel at Magelang, I would like to tell you what me and my family did today.

Actually, the main destination of today's journey is Borobudur Temple. Yes, I haven't seen it before. Yes, I know I'm one of those katro people. We departed from Semarang around 10 AM, after had a breakfast at NJ House. It's a guesthouse actually.

So, if I have to tell ya, well.........there are a lot of people, and I felt like the sun flew right above my head. Can you imagine how I climbed those THOUSANDS of STAIRS and the sun helped to make me sweaty?! YES I HAD MY OWN PHYSICAL EXERCISE.

Back to the track, Borobudur Temple is a good place. There's stupa in every each of medium temple, I saw them. Moreover, so many sellers outside. Strong sellers, honestly. They kept ordering you what they sell, but all you can do is say "Engga mas maap ya" or perhaps you can try "Boten mas". Be careful if they reply with the same tounge, you could run then :p

After had a walk on Borobudur, then we spent the rest of the day at Mendut Temple which is inveresly different than before. I think Mendut Temple needs to be regenerated. Actually I don't know wether it's truly need or not but the construction of the building is not...we can say...good enough. Disposition? I don't know. And some bricks are missing.

Then I had sweet and sour shells for dinner. 

The last, I support #VISITINDONESIA2013. Explore this country first, and we'll know that we should be proud of our own culture, and we'll be proud for having it as Indonesians. Take care the national heritage :)

I won't tell you any further 'cause the clock warns me, and it also reminds that the next journey is already on the line. So, I have to shut my eye down, and catch y'all later.

Coming up, JOGJAKARTA! See ya ;)

 

Untitled-10

Ada satu yang tertinggal dan tak sempat ku lahirkan ke dunia,
mimpiku.
Mengukir kata indahmu dan kata sederhanaku dalam dinding kertas,
sebuah layang-layang
Menerbangkannya bersama, 
lalu membebaskannya,
mengembalikannya untuk dipersatukan dengan alam raya.

Untitled-9

Jika kau ingin membinasakanku, maka jangan buat aku mencari silet kedua untuk mempercepat proses kematianku sendiri.

Jessie The Yodeling Cowgirl

A few more days in this month, there will be a story about Jessie,
the cowgirl loitering in the street.
The last owner left her without any of cue.
She was shabby and dirty.

She'll see former owners celebrate the new day,
with the other beloved doll.
Laughter echoed in the sky,
Poor Jessie only able to wipe the tears with the edge of her shirt.

Then she look at her brown shoes,
still strong despite various asphalt roads hit so hard.
Jessie find inspiration,
as a form of reinforcement to her heart which such as cotton candy

Jessie walked away,
away from the owner.
With a set of prayer and gratitude, and tons stalks of happiness,
she was sent only to the owner who have made her so alive.

Cerita Pagi

Penulis itu seperti makhluk amphibi.
Mereka memiliki dua dunia, entah apa sebutannya.
Dunia darat-dunia air,
Dunia keras-dunia halus,
Dunia alami-dunia buatan,
Dunia nyata-dunia khayal.

Penulis itu mampu memvisualisasikan apapun sejelas-jelasnya, atau sebaliknya.
Lebih menarik, ia bisa mengalirkan rasa untuk seseorang melalui tulisannya.
Lebih jauh, ia bisa merangkai banyak ide-aspirasi menuju lintas bumi.

Penulis itu hidup dalam kolase kata.
Membentuk cerita, menyampaikan rasa, menyelundupkan makna.



Pah, Mah, aku mau jadi penulis..
