Biru..

Biru..
Hanyutkan aku dalam senandungmu
Lamunkanku dalam duniamu
Biar ku lupa sejenak segala
Ku ingin istirahat sebentar saja
Biru..
Perdengarkan aku nyanyianmu
Bawaku ke dalam imajinasimu
Biar ku bahagia
Hilang hati perih luka
Biru..
Perlihatkan ombakmu padaku
Biar mataku terhibur
Biar sedihku ku lupa
Dan cintaku menguap ke awan sana
…………………………………………
Biru, tenggelamkah aku?

Kisah Santai tentang Cinta

Cinta. Satu hal yang selalu jadi misteri buat gw. Dulu, gw punya banyak banget pertanyaan tentang cinta. Mulai dari apa cinta emang ada, apa bedanya cinta sama kebiasaan, di mana batesnya cinta dan kebiasaan, dan masih banyak lagi lainnya. Tapi sekarang gw tau, sebenernya itu semua ga masalah, ga harus dipertanyakan, dan ga harus mempengaruhi si cinta itu sendiri. Karena either way kalo kita bisa sampe terbiasa sama seseorang, ya less likely kita ga nyaman sama orang itu ga sih? Kalo seseorang bisa bertahan sekian lama sama pasangannya, kalo kita segitu nyamannya sama seseorang, masa iya itu bukan cinta? Dan kalo di hati lo ada rasa bahagia, isn’t that enough for life? Bukannya itu goal terakhirnya seseorang? To be happy in life, cause that's what matters eventually, right? Dan putus cinta itu ga enak, bro, doesn’t worth a minute! Tapi kalo emang lagi putus cinta, ya at some point you have to let go and just be happy again. The world still has love for you, you just need to go out and find it once again. And remember, be happy, cause that's what matters.

Aku Kangen | WS Rendra

Lunglai – ganas karena bahagia dan sedih,…
indah dan gigih cinta kita di dunia yang fana.
Nyawamu dan nyawaku dijodohkan langit,
dan anak kita akan lahir di cakrawala.
Ada pun mata kita akan terus bertatapan hingga berabad-abad lamanya.

Juwitaku yang cakap meskipun tanpa dandanan
untukmu hidupku terbuka.
Warna-warna kehidupan berpendar-pendar menakjubkan
Isyarat-isyarat getaran ajaib menggerakkan penaku.
Tanpa sekejap pun luput dari kenangan padamu
aku bergerak menulis pamplet, mempertahankan kehidupan.

Jakarta, Kotabumi, 24 Maret 1978

Endings.

Nature, it gives us certainty. Nature gives us theory. Autumn comes and summer is gone. One of nature’s theories, that everything eventually ends. And as much as I’ve looked forward to every new beginning, I’ve always disliked endings. Last day of summer, the final album of a great band and final chapter of a great book. But nature teaches us that endings are inevitable. The leaves will fall. Summer ends. A goodbye will be spoken. A goodbye to everything that was familiar, everything that was comforting enough. But sometimes, although we keep moving on, there are some people who are so much a part of us they’ll be with us no matter what. They are our solid season, our leaves that never fall. And for those people we will give our love. For those people, we will fight and we will stay. Cause nature, it also teaches us to surrender. To stop looking, to believe in what we see, what we feel. To stop questioning everything. To surrender. And to love. For those people, we will wait and see what happens. Of those people, we finally understand the reason of why we live.
