L i m a
Ketika banyak hal berhenti di angka lima
Banyak hal berubah di angka lima
Banyak perpisahan di angka lima
Banyak pembelajaran di angka lima
Banyak petualangan di angka lima

Sampai akhirnya saya jadi takut sendiri
Ketika akan menghadapi angka lima
Ketika mulai memasuki enam, tujuh, delapan
Dan seterusnya
Dan selanjutnya
Dan semua angka setelah lima

Lima yang dulu favorit saya sekarang berubah jadi angka yang menakutkan
Semoga saja,
Enam
Tujuh
Delapan
Sembilan
Sepuluh
Dan selanjutnya
Dapat menjadi lebih baik

Karna lima tak lagi menjadi baik.

A Tale of A Foolish Cinderella

-
     Previous story: Cinderella and the prince — who’s now become a king, broke up, they stopped talking to each other and moved on with their own life.       Until one day, The King suddenly rang the bell and showed up at the doorstep. “How are you doing?” He asked casually. Cinderella was so flustered, yet foolishly happy by the chance to reconnect with someone she used to or was probably still in love with.      It appears that The King needed support from Cinderella to withstand attacks from neighboring kingdoms that wanted to dethrone him. After his mother and father gave him the throne, The King ruled his kingdom alone. Cinderella, who knew that man like the back of her hand, understood the struggle. She assured him that she would support him no matter what.       Days turned to weeks, and the time spent together had made their heart grow fonder. The King gave a hint that he wanted to re-establish their relation...

McDonald's parking lot Past midnight We talked for hours So many topics Mostly about you, about me We talked about us What happened between us How we used to be together How all of a sudden, everything fell apart I miss you, I said I know you miss me too You reached my finger Put them between yours We finally made up Your ice cream cone was finished Mine was melted in the cup I savor it little by little while talking with you I love it when you wear your glasses, you said I smiled I love seeing your big brown eyes, I said quietly Illuminated by the street light We gaze into each other's eyes Understanding the depth of what we felt at this moment You said you wanted to kiss me I gave you a peck on your cheek You smile I found your dimple was so cute So I want to kiss you, too I pulled your collar to get you closer Your lips met mine Tasted like a gummy bear Vanilla, like the ice cream you just finished Smell a little bit of tobacco, like our cigarettes It was sweet, it was tende...

Love like a Jellyfish

-
  Fun fact:  Jellyfish is an ancient animal and has existed on the earth for more than 500 years. Jellyfish don't have brains and hearts, their body consists of 98% water. Jellyfish could resist the damaged ocean and still reproduce massively. One type of Jellyfish could live forever by cheating the life process. Moral of the story: I think I love you like a Jellyfish.  Because there are times when I feel my love for you linger way longer than Jellyfish existence.  Because when I am with you, I don’t use my brain cells or my heart, I simply follow wherever the stream flows. Because as long as I am with you, I can adapt to any environment I am in, but I still love you with all the means. Because when our love seems to die, it just needs some little time to recover and then come back even stronger than ever.  I think I like it when I love you like a Jellyfish.   But let’s Imagine if someone make a research about our love existence: “Love like a Jellyfish, a l...
