Jodoh itu pilihan. Sesederhana analogi klasik memilih bunga di taman tanpa boleh kembali ke belakang. Diam di tempat takut menyesal melewatkan pemandangan di depan; melanjutkan perjalanan takut salah menyia-nyiakan yang sudah di tangan, apalagi kalau sudah terlanjur bikin taman yang kecil dengan isi bunga yang terbatas.
Mau takut yang mana pun juga adalah sebuah pilihan. Diam di tempat membunuh rasa penasaran dan strangely merelakan diri to fit in dengan ketidak-pas-an itu sendiri. Lanjut berjalan bertaruh dengan ketidakpastian dan mengambil resiko kesepian. Pilihan.
Tapi ada yang bukan pilihan. Keraguan. Dan semua pemikiran tentang ketakutan akan pilihan-pilihan yang ada. Kalau sudah begini tinggal keberanian yang berperan. Mau bertahan dalam keraguan atau berpetualang mencari jawaban.

Politics
Her face is
doomed
His mouth
mumbling
Like a
handsome idiot
Both are
politician
Both pretty
They talk
like the smartest
And secretly
thinking about sex
Most of
their kind is just like them
They talk
talk talk
Then sex sex
sex
And then
comes one hero
Who sincerely
cares
And
everybody keeps telling
That it’s
just for his image
Maybe nobody
knows anymore
The slight
difference
Between cares
and tales
Old Memorial Park
That place
was full with darkness
I could see
nothing but white smelly smolder
I went there
to pick up someone
Someone from
my past
She’s pretty
but fake
Like a
mannequin
Her nose is
perfect
And her hair
is all black
Back then
she was a waitress
In a
restaurant right down the Sunset Street
Near my
apartment, a place where I barely live
We’re not a
lover
Nor a best
friend
I just knew
her from where I got my coffee
And she just
knew me as one lousy customer
Not long
from now she just got hit by a car
I saw her
from across the street
And dropped
my cup of coffee
I stood
there for three hours
And she was
brought to faraway
Far from
Sunset Street
So I don’t
drink coffee anymore
Instead, I
went to that Memorial Park
To pick her
up and trying to be a lover
One night I dream
I drink
coffee and she walks next to me
Hand on
hand, still on the Sunset Street

What if..
Hi, world. It's been a long time.. I don't feel really well today. I miss my friends a lott.. I feel lonely here.. I wish, and I really wish, I could turn back time and go to my very happy moments. I want to sing, I want to play.. Just this second, I want to close my eyes and fly. Fly to my long long happiness. I want a longgg deep hug. I'm too scared of everything. Gimana kalo semua mimpi-mimpi gw cuma semu. Gimana kalo gw bakal end up being nobody.. Gimana kalo I'm not that good or I'm not trying hard enough.. Gimana kalo gw kehilangan cinta dalam hidup gw.. Gimana kalo gw sendirian.. I'm scared and I just need a longg deep hugg.. Just this time.. Gimana kalo semua tulisan gw tentang mimpi memang cuma mimpi.. Gimana kalo semua perasaan excited gw tentang mimpi cuma berenti di situ aja.. Gimana? Ah, I feel sick..
