Vice Versa...

One thing i've been keeping in my mind while this #stayhome situation is when most of my daily routine was done outside my home. At that time, several times I craved a day off, literally only one day, where I could be free from all kind of activities and spend for lying down or just "leyeh-leyeh". I even felt that 24 hours was not enough for me. Now, in this COVID-19 pandemic situation, several boards make emergency rules and one of them is making their employee work from home for a while, including me. Vice versa! I feel more comfortable with my daily habit of getting up in the morning, showering, having breakfast, then leaving for the office. I really realize myself when I said I wanted to be free in one day and the reality is the opposite. I have no idea and i feel less grateful for such that small thing. I still have 15 days off and yes, I hope I don't fucking crave to work anymore in next 15 days and will spend them with other useful actions. Huh... Go for it and break a leg, G!

Oh Lord, i almost have no more spirit. To straighten myself up, i ain't as passionate as before. I feel like i lost myself and somehow i often wanna hide from people. I never even talk to You in my loneliness. I know i can't blame everything that happened. I don't even think i deserve to cry over anything anymore. I feel i was unworthy and unable to complain anymore. Unfortunately, i didn't have a desire to pray either. Then, should i just blame myself? Forgive me, Lord. Lord, i know that all Your creations are truly beautiful in Your eyes, including me. However, sometimes i wonder whether i was made to be meaningless; will i end up being a bad person, or a needy, or a beggar, or someone with a mental disorder; whether i was created to be jobless, or unable to marry the man i currently love and hope for, or have no money. With my human mind, i see other people easily reach for what makes them happy, their dreams. Then, i saw myself and cried. Don't i deserve what my...

Sabda Rindu

Berteman sepi, berkawan kelam di sudut ruang menata hati. Selami makna yang menyapa kalbu 'tuk selaksa relung tertawan rindu. Wahai malam, kupanggil engkau  bukan dengan rasa dendam. Lepaskan segala syair yang meredam. Maka bawalah salam penawar sendu. Kurindu...l ebih baik katakan apa adanya b ila memang rindu. Kurindu k arena waktu tak 'kan mampu berpihak p ada perasaan yang meragu. Kurayu malam, kubelai sunyi  bukan dengan rasa dendam. Luruhkan lara yang menikam kalbu. Maka bawalah salam penawar sendu. Kurindu...l ebih baik katakan apa adanya b ila memang rindu. Kurindu k arena waktu tak 'kan mampu berpihak p ada perasaan yang meragu. Risalah asa yang terikat, y ang membawa sabda rindu. 'Kan kutempuh semua perjalanan 't uk pulang ke hatimu. Kurindu...l ebih baik katakan apa adanya b ila memang rindu. Kurindu k arena waktu tak 'kan mampu berpihak p ada perasaan yang meragu.

Cahaya Lampu Kota

Image
Hari Kamis kemarin, aku pergi ke Penatapan (daerah Tanah Karo). ---PS: "Penatapan" adalah tempat yang terdiri dari banyak warung makan yang sengaja dibuat untuk melihat pemandangan cahaya lampu kota dari ketinggian sekian ratus meter dpl (maaf kalau salah) dan cocok dilihat saat malam atau dini hari.--- Aku berangkat dari Medan sekitar pukul 11an malam dengan 3 orang temanku. Singkat cerita, kami sampai di lokasi pukul sekitar setengah 2 dini hari. Kami pilih warung yang kami kira cocok untuk melihat pemandangan dengan jelas dan maksimal. Kami masuk ke dalam, memesan 4 mangkok ind*mie, teh manis panas, kopi susu, dan cappucino. Sembari menunggu pesanan kami datang, aku pergi sambil bawa smartphone-ku ke area sisi pinggir warung supaya bisa melihat pemandangan cahaya lampu kota dengan puas. Berkali-kali aku mencoba mengambil foto pemandangan melalui kamera smartphone-ku tapi aku ga juga puas melihat hasilnya. Mungkin karena gelap kali ya, jadi cara kerja kameranya juga ga ...
