A story from Gobi Desert

Ketika kau menginginkan sesuatu, kejar dan raihlah
Kau akan belajar untuk menjaganya, memilikinya dan melalui waktu bersamanya
Namun setelah itu, belajarlah juga untuk kehilangannya

Karena mungkin saja,
Dia hanya sesuatu yang singgah dalam hidupmu sekejap saja

Seperti fatamorgana di Gurun Gobi
Dan rasanya akan sangat sakit
Bila kau terlalu mencintainya,
Tak bisa hidup tanpanya,
Seperti tersesat di Gurun Gobi.

Franz Schubert - Trio No. 2 in E-flat major for piano, violin, and violoncello, D. 92

This beautiful piece, Trio No. 2 in E-flat major for piano, violin, and violoncello, D. 929 by Franz Schubert was composed for the engagement party of Schubert’s school-friend, Josef von Spaun. I often wonder why I am immensely comfortable with D, I don’t want to use the word ‘love’ here because if I define love based on my definition of love which is to no longer have a hint of selfishness in it, no fear, no dependence, no jealousy nor possessiveness, then certainly what I am feeling towards D is not love.

It is because he has a deep interest in life, life as a whole, life as a continuity and because life is an ever changing process, so too will our discussions, our thoughts, and ultimat...

You see how I am circling in these patterns?  how I am living, out of memories?  I am still a long way from accepting it,  that there's just no you and me. Did I commit a crime?  I won't believe that loving you was just a waste of time.  or was it in my head, that I am reading into things that you never said?  Because I still don't have the answers,  to why we couldn't work it out. I want to think it's something that I did,  so I can turn it back around.  I want to convince myself,  that we're perfect in every single way. As long as I can keep the truth away,  from my heart. If I still believe that you love me,  maybe I will survive.  So I tell myself you're coming home,...

A tale of a coward girl

the best thing about you is simple: you don’t get me scared. you don’t get me wondering how I stand with you, how I spend time with you, what I’m gonna talk with you, what I’m supposed to wear, how I look today, how we will walk to our future. but the worst thing about you is also simple : you make me terribly afraid. that you only happen once in my life.
