The Ocean

I want to go see the ocean
And tell him how much I miss him

Not so long time ago we were sitting there side by side,
and all things about love has been figured out

Now the heart is empty again

But the ocean is still there
Sings to me from faraway, about love that never finds a way

So I wanna tell him that love is never be the same
I might find another love, some other times
But it'll never be the same

So I pack my bag
With plan to come back
Bring my copy of love
And show it to the rest of the world

A month.. A year..
And now I'm here
But the ocean is still there

So I pack again
With no plan to come back
Two years.. Three years..
And the ocean is still there..

Cinta tanpa suara.

Mungkin kita adalah sepasang kekasih itu. Kekasih hati yang tahu mencintai, tapi tak tahu memiliki. Kekasih yang lebih tau mencintai saat terpisah kata, terpisah rasa. Kekasih yang selalu merasa kurang saat bersama dan selalu bertanya-tanya apakah memang dia adanya. Namun saat peluk tak lagi bisa dijangkau, di situlah hati meyakini satu sama lain.

Atau mungkin memang cerita kita tak berakhir di sini. Akan tiba saatnya kau kembali lalu aku memaki tapi kau kan tetap kembali. Mungkin dari sekian banyak skenario yang bisa ku pikirkan, ini adalah skenario terbaik. Lalu kita kan bersama, beranak cucu berdua. Ku buatkan kau kopi pahitmu setiap pagi dan kau dengarkan celotehku saat kembali dari pengejaran hari.

Namun yang paling mungkin sedang terjadi adalah sebenarnya aku mencintai dan kau tidak. Sesederhana itu. Aku mencintai dan kau tidak. Dan sulit sekali hati mengerti. Sulit ku memahami. Karna lalu buat apa cintaku? Buat apa pedihku? Kenapa harus ada pihak-pihak seperti aku? Lalu ada pihak-pihak seperti kamu. Dan nanti akan ada pihak-pihak seperti dia, yang memenangkan hatimu? Kesedihan ini nyata, senyata rasa cinta yang tak kunjung henti. Senyata harap yang tak segera habis.

-Aku.

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.
