How hurtful it is

"It Will Rain" by Bruno Mars

If you ever leave me, baby,
Leave some morphine at my door
'Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have,
We don't have it anymore.

There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm makin'
To keep you by my side
To keep you from walkin' out the door.

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday, it'll rain, rain, rain

I'll never be your mother's favorite
Your daddy can't even look me in the eye
Ooh, if I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
Sayin' "There goes my little girl
Walkin' with that troublesome guy"

But they're just afraid of something they can't understand
Ooh, but little darlin' watch me change their minds
Yeah for you I'll try I'll try I'll try I'll try
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make you mine

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday, it'll rain, rain, rain.

Oh, don't just say (don't just say) goodbye (goodbye),
Don't just say (don't just say) goodbye (goodbye)
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it right

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday, it'll rain, rain, rain

Commitment

I have made that commitment to him.

To wait for him.

And I will.

No matter how much it hurts.

I will, because, i love him.

Kembali ke Asal

We talked.

I wanted it to be as rational as i planned it to be.

And yes, i lost control. Stupid me!

Then i calmed back.

Driving back home after seeing him, i didn't shed a tear.

But i'm numb. My head is filled with questions, and scenarios.

And answers.

I dig deep.


When i first realise that i am in love with him,

I cried cos, i know how tough loving him will be.

But i swore that i will try to gain his love.

And i did.

Now that we are in a relationship, i sort of forgot.

What i said to myself.

That i would bear it, this love, because of one thing,

the faith that i have on him.

I have absolute faith and hope on him, that i can wait for him til now.

That i can continue to accept him as he is and bear all the challenges threw at me.

Now i am being reminded that no matter what, i would keep my words and wait.

I will continue to wait for you Laling.

That's how strong my sense of love, loyalty and faith for you.

I just hope you don't take me for granted.

Test

I've been tested again.

It's like my first time, i was shaking, numb, holding my tears.

I was in the office, a few hours ago, when i received a message.

I was shocked. I could feel my heart just breaks.

I wish..

I don't know what to believe any more.

Why are you doing this to me?

I valiantly control myself, until now.

I know, i will get the answer from him.

I want the truth. And nothing but.

Because i deserve more, and better than this!

Revelation

Suddenly it hit me.

Growing up i used to imagine being able to experience a wonderful, special 27th year.

And only now, nearing the end of 27 years, today, just now that it hit me.

I'm with En.Laling on my 27th year; more accurately on 9th of January.

That's my special, wonderful 27th year!

How weird is that, something that i want and set when i was a growing up,

actually came true.

Failure

I cried.

I have failed yet again to hold my tears.

Hope

Sometimes, hope is scary.

It hurts when your hope wasn't fulfilled.

Regardless, i still hope.

If I don't have any, I wouldn't accept this love God gives me to feel.

And I have hope unto him.

Him, as in God.

And him, as in the guy that i am in love with, still.

That feeling of wonder that i have been feeling since forever, is still in me.

I love that.

I love that, i still am, in love with him.

Finally...

Finally, i cry just now.

A bit. Briefly, like 10 seconds of crying,
while under the shower.

But, finally, i cry.
Its so difficult to cry, when all you life
you always trained yourself to hold it.

Till now, i still think that crying
is an act of weaknesses.
Although i admit to the fact that
it help releases the misery, and sadness
that contains inside you with it.

So i cry. And the worry-ness, sadness and patient,
has finally turned into anger, mad.
I am so mad!

I try, oh believe me, God i have tried.
Tried to be patient.
Tried to be understanding.
Tried so hard to be what he wants me to be.
Whereas i shouldn't be pretending.
I shouldn't be even thinking of being
someone else.
I should just be me.

Oh what? If i erupted and be angry,
that my value will decrease and he will
leave me?
How stupid that i think of that?
It makes me so insecure and scared that
he even thinks of that.

I mean, i accepted him regardless of all his faults.
And he has many. That i don't really care or worry about
cos i know him. I know what he is capable of.
I know what he can be. I have hope.

Obviously he seems to not share the same aspire as
i am.
Do something wrong and you're out!

Huh, how stupid he can be,
and i don't think i love a stupid man.
I am in love with a smart man.

He is smart. I believe him to be.
So if he were to take light of me,
oh he makes the biggest mistake of his life.

He will regret it if he lose me.
I said if, cos i know he's not stupid.

I can be patient. I can.
It's just that sometimes
it hurts, especially when he does take me
for granted.

If It Kills Me

by Jason Mraz

And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me, if it kills me

I think it might kill me

Make You Feel My Love - Adele

When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you
A warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no - one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you
For a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you
Haven't made
Your mind up yet
But I would never
Do you wrong
I've known it
From the moment
That we met
No doubt in my mind
Where you belong

I'd go hungry
I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling
Down the avenue
Know there's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change
Are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing
Like me yet

I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love, To make you feel my love

On whether there's a point

I am angry. I am so angry.
Very angry. Demn angry!
So mad. And frustrated.
And sad.

And sad.

I wish to retain, the anger.
I want to feel angry.
But anger not to the point
of indifference.

I don't want to, not care.
I just think that, anger is a good feeling.

Instead of frustration, sadness and disappointment.

Yes, anger is good.

But towards these two days,
its beginning to somewhat dim.
Sadness beginning to try to break through somehow.
Like last night even, especially when i am exhausted.

Like now. I am damn tired. Tried to sleep it off since
the last two hours, but i remain uptight.

And my mind is filled with thoughts.
Thoughts like dreams and hopes.

Thoughts that can make me really, really happy
and despair at the same time.

I was forewarned, or you can say reminded
by a friend that i might think that i'm the only one,
but you can't be certain.
You can't know that you are the only one in his life now.

I think of it to a more certain as i was reprimanded of
my behaviour. That what i do can undermine my value.

I was shocked.
That my value can be diminish.
That what i am doing can change his perception of me.

Where i hold him at my highest regard.
Where even with all his weaknesses and behaviour,
he is still the one for me.
That his value never lowered just because
of what he thinks, how he acts and what he does.

He is still the one for me.
He is still the one for me.

But why do i feel that i am still, on a test.
That he is judging me, rating me, valuing me,
to see whether i am the one for him.

Gosh, i was very, i can't find the words to express it,
terribly sad, and crying silently.
So effing dramatic, but true.

I have lost the sense of security and trust towards him
from that moment onwards. I feel that all
the trust and love i have built for him,
towards him has diminish. Dimmed.

And i think that, for now, no matter what
i will try to do to fix it,
it's now up to him to regain back my trust,
and love.

The only question is, whether he loves me
enough to do that.

Which one is better?

I wonder which emotions is better to feel.
Whether its sad or anger.
I feel angry now.
When slightly second before that
all i am feeling is worried, sad, restless,
disappointed.
Yes, definitely not positive feelings.

I wonder also, when did i last feel happy.
Like, truly happy.
I think there was this one day last week,
when i did.
It was when i ate lunch with some
close-friends colleague.
And that's rare.

You know, when you're one in your crappy mood,
when all you want to do is sleep and dream,
cos somehow dreams are better than reality,
and when you wake up in the morning,
you feel so down, dark, sad, energy-less,
and laugh seems foreign to your face muscle,
and smile is somehow forbidden.
Like, i don't deserve to be happy.

Why am i in this crappy mood?
Whereas i shouldn't!
I think i just lost it, once, yet again.
That motivation, that burning sensation
that pushes me towards my goals,
that strong feeling inside me that
beckons me to live.
I've lost it again, yet, once again.

I have lost it two years ago.
And found it after i was hospitalized.
I went bungee-jump and after that,
everything escalates and went positive.
I even started a relationship this year.
And, now its escalating downwards yet again.
And its spiralling down slowly.
I tried to stop it.
I travel. I met new people.
I try to become less worried.
I try to find new passion.
I try to do new projects.
I try to be nicer to the people that i'm not fond of.

I tried everything and i did all those stuff
mentioned above. I did all that i can do.
And i do pray to God.

But it seems to no avail and pointless.
Cos, in the end, no matter how many small goals
i tried to set and achieved,
nothing seems so pointless and time wasting
as i have only one goal.

I have made up my mind years ago on that goal
and its stuck with me until now.
I guess that is why i am restless.
Because for all those efforts, prayers and let it go
that i have done,
it's seems not enough.
I thought that being in a relationship is all
i want. That he loves me back is enough.

It turns out that i learn that its not enough, for me.
I want more. I guess, i want security.
I want guarantee. I want him to be mine.
I want marriage, that sacred union between two people in love.

Even as i know marriage is not ultimate.
And there is no guarantee that it is forever,
i still want it.

I do question my motives of wanting it,
whether i want to because i am pressured into it, subconsciously.
Or i go with the flow where its time that i get married,
or simply because i want to start living my life with him beside me.

Yes, yes that's the reason.
I want to live my life with him beside me.

I do, am living my life now.
I do enjoy life with my family, relatives, friends and acquaintances.
But somehow, its not the same, without him.

He is at the back of my mind in everything i do.

And i just want him. Yes, i want him.

So what do i do now?

I just need to hold on to my anger,
and remember this feeling so that
i can stay away from him,
and start to let go, because
if i don't learn to love,
like God intended humans to feel
true love,
than i am not ready.

I need to learn to Love.

The One That Got Away

3rd song of hers (Katy Perry) that i love other than Teenage Dreams and Thinking of You;

"The One That Got Away"

Summer after high school when we first met
We make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my 18th Birthday
We got matching tattoos

Used to steal your parents' liquor
And climb to the roof
Talk about our future
like we had a clue
Never planned that one day
I'd be losing you

In another life
I would be your girl
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away

I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
Never one without the other we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you
I put those records on

Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown singing the Blues
Its time to face the music
I'm no longer your muse

And in another life
I would be your girl
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
The o-o-o-o-o-one [x3]
The one that got away

[Bridge:]
All this money can't buy me a time machine (Nooooo)
Can't replace you with a million rings (Nooooo)
I shoulda told you what you meant to me (Woooooow)
Cause now I pay the price

In another life
I would be your girl
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
The o-o-o-o-o-one [x3]

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away

Labels

Why is it you are always looking for definitions? You're only satisfied when you're given a label you can stick onto things. I love you. It's as simple as that.

Marriage & Me

I am terrified of marriage.

I can't imagine how miserable and beholden my life felt it i were to be married.

I feel that if i am married, i will have to be in a situation where i am forced. Forced to give up things i want for the things i need to do.

Because of responsibility.
Because i am married.
Because i have a husband.
Because its not about just me anymore.
Because there's children involved.
Because, well, i am married - changes a lot of things.

I heard stories about marriages from friends, colleagues, acquaintances.
Read from the papers, and magazines and books.
Look at movies and live dramas.

I just can't, refuse to accept it. Marriage.
It was once a sacred union between two people.
And now, it's a joke.

People doesn't understand the union anymore.
People are not strong anymore.
They give up easily.

I am afraid that my partner will give up on me.
I am afraid i will give up on him!

It's been gnawing in my head (and mind) for quite some time.
I don't know why on earth am i thinking about it when the issue wasn't even raised
between us (me and him).

I guess i did think about it because i am considering it?
Considering to... what? Accept? Or imagine what my reaction will be, when he does propose one day?

In my mind, without doubt i would say yes. But, that is when i'm in my good moods.
In my bad days, as such, i have trouble saying yes.

At the same time, why on earth would i said no?

Why be in a relationship if you're not thinking of marriage?

There's a book i just read recently, by Adriana Trigliani who taught me a powerful lesson; you don't commit to marriage unless you make it your number 1 in your live priority list.

It hit me. That is so true.

Easily concluded, both of us, me and him... put marriage in, well, not number 1 in our priority list.

I am quite sure, certain that in his list, it hasn't been written anywhere pun. I mean, i am quite sure i am being put last in his priority list!

But me, to be honest, i actually put him first in my list. I drop everything else when he comes in the picture.

But, does that mean i put marriage as number 1?

I don't think that just because i put him as number 1 in my life's priority list, that i also incidentally put marriage as number 1 too?

Right???

Am Crazie About It

"You And I" by Lady Gaga

It’s been a long time since I came around
Been a long time but I’m back in town
This time I’m not leaving without you

You taste like whiskey when you kiss me, oooh
I’ll give anything again to be your baby doll
This time I’m not leaving without you

He said sit back down where you belong
In the corner of my bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on the couch where we
made love for first time and you said to me

Something, something about this place
Something ‘bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face
Something, something about my cool Nebraska guy
Yeah something about
Baby yoü and I

It`s been two years since I let you go,
I couldn’t listen to a joke or rock `n roll
Muscle cars drove a truck right through my heart

On my birthday you sing me a heart of gold
With a guitar humming and no clothes
This time I'm not leaving without you
Ooh-oh ooh-oh

Sit back down where you belong
In the corner of my bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on the couch where we
made love for first time and you said to me

Something, something about this place
Something ‘bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face
Something, something about my cool Nebraska guy
Yeah something about
Baby yoü and I

Yoü and I
You, yoü and I
You, yoü and I
You, yoü and I, I
Yoü and I
You, yoü and I
Oh yeah! I'd rather die
Without yoü and I

C’mon!
Put your drinks up!

We got a whole lot of money, but we still pay rent
‘Cause you can’t buy a house in Heaven
There’s only three men that Imma serve my whole life
It’s my daddy and Nebraska and Jesus Christ

Something, something about the chase
Six whole years
I'm a New York woman, born to run you down
So have my lipstick all over your face
Something, something about just knowing when it's right

So put your drinks up, for Nebraska
For Nebraska, Nebraska, I love you

Yoü and I
You, yoü and I
Baby! I rather die!
Without yoü and I

Yoü and I
You, yoü and I
Nebraska! I rather die
Without yoü and I

It’s been a long time since I came around
Been a long time but I’m back in town
This time I’m not leaving without you.

Me and My Problems

SHIT

I am going to ruin this one.
I am so going to ruin this relationship.

Why? Oh why, oh why do I keep on
blaming me for everything?

Force of habit I guess.
I grew up teaching myself that
change can only happen if
I change myself, if i accept
the fact that I must be the
change. And that is I, if not I
to blame.

In this case, my relationship,
its the same.
Somehow i always blame myself.

Even though i have been writing
a lot about whats wrong and such with
him and our relationship,
and how Both of us, actually
compromise.

Me with this timetable and
his ways and his schedule
and his work and his friends
and his way of thinking and
such.

Him with me and my tantrums, and
my moods, and my dissatisfaction
with his life and the way he
has no time for me, and the fact
that he is always busy
and such.

Sigh.

I am very much afraid that
in the end, he will be
the one who's going to left me
because he can't stand my attitude.

Attitude brought on by
his attitude.

Weird.

The fact that i can't be
patient enough, will
push him away.

Will he left me?

In my past relationship i suddenly
realised that it has always been
me who left first.

Cos i think of things, and i
predict things and i think i
believe in those things and
then i make the decision to
leave cos i don't want them
to leave me first.

And now, i think now
i am doing it all over again.

This thoughts about letting go,
and giving up, and can't be bother
and can't stand it, has left me thinking.

But then, i know, that i still care.
Cos if i don't care, i wouldn't be mad
or sad or disappointed.

As such i am now. Crying in the
car, or in the shower, or
alone in bed at night.

Knowing how much you love that man
despite your pain.

God, what am i to do?
Am i to blame for my own suffering?

There's a saying,
The pain you've felt, you've inflicted upon yourself.

Is that true?
That there is nothing wrong
with this relationship, and i am
simply over think things, creating
problems and such?

Is it so wrong to want my partner
to spend time with me, to put me
as his priority once in a while,
to feel that i am cared for, to feel
that i have a place in his life, to
feel that i am loved?

Please tell me where am I wrong,
cos if those above are things i shouldn't demand
from my lover, then what should i do?

Should i just wait quietly, to only
communicate with him when he wants to?
To only see him only when he is free?
To only spend time with him when
he is available?

God, please tell me
where I am wrong.

I am just so tired.

I Don't Know

Loving isn't how I forget, but how I forgive;
Not what I see, but what I feel;
Not how to let go, but how to hold on.

Yeah, i will forgive, feel and hold on to him and our love!

Trust

Can i trust you?

How far can i trust you?

Can i really, really trust you?

Can i trust you with my life?

Cos i think i want to trust you,
and i think i persuade myself to
trust you, because i see the person
that you can be.

Don't betray that trust,
because i do, trust you.

Worth

It's hard to wait around for something you know won't happen,
but it's even harder to stop waiting when you know it's everything you want.

Rules

When you miss him too much,
that you break your own rules.

I don't know what to make of it.

Do you?

Playing in my Head

The thought has been
wandering aimlessly in my head
need to write it down.

You see, i jeopardize
my own relationship.

I am afraid of people
leaving me, that i left them
first.

I can't abide to
disloyalty.

I can tolerate anything,
anything at all,
but disloyalty.

I am afraid of him
leaving me that i usually
make that decision to
leave him first.

Lately i have been thinking
of letting him go, cos
i don't think i can stand this
roller coaster emotions playing
with my heart and my head.

It's so hard, to let go.
One minute i can do it.
The other, i am so filled
with anguish and pain
that i wonder,
who am i kidding?

Then i kinda figure it out.
Is it me who actually
drove him away?
Or i just felt that its me
cos i always blame me for
anything that happens in my life?

Whose fault is it?

Is it in him who doesn't
pay attention as i wanted it to be?

Or lies in me who can't understand enough?

Is it in him who refuse to
tolerate and budge from what
he believes is true?

Or in me who failed to understand his wishes?

Is it in him who has his own idea
of what love and being in a
relationship is?

Or in me who has my own idea or what
love is and being in a relationship
is?

Is he the one who doesn't want to
complicate things, wants things
to be simple and easy?

Or in me who over think things,
complicate stuff and being 'too'
in many ways?

Gosh, why am i feeling this way?

Sometimes i wonder why these issues rises?

Is it me?
I don't know.. At times, i can do it.
Sometimes, i just can't.

Am i forcing myself?
Don't i see the truth?
What is the truth?
Is it working?
What is happiness?
Am i happy?
Is this love?

All i know is that, when ever i'm
with him, when ever i'm in his
arms, everything feels so right,
that tears would just brim in
my eyes. And my heart just bursts
with so much love. And i will
feel content. That being with
him is all i ever going to need.

Just one thought;
Are the seconds of paradise
worth the long hours of pain?

Reminder

Sometimes we waste too much time to think about someone
who doesn't even think about us for a second.

Don't trust too much, don't love too much and don't hope too much.
Because that too much can hurt you so much.

The good thing about arguments is
when you make up with them.

Lessons from Seducing Mr. Perfect

Is it possible to find true love
that won't make me lonely?

Love is a game of power,
a manipulation of emotions.

You shouldn't do that,
smiles, compliments, gestures.
You'll be feeding his ego.
One more thing, if he already has a big ego,
you need to deflate it with some shock therapy.

No, definitely not.
Having sex with him now is like
handing him the game.

If you wanted to be treated like a queen,
then act like one.
How you train your opponent is up to you.

Manipulating people isn't that fun.
It's tiring and hard.

What if in manipulating people,
we lost the pleasure of an honest conversation?
Why use manipulation if we can't discover ones' true feeling?
Have you been happy with that sort of relationship?

Instead of calculating, i want to be honest.
Instead of receiving, i want to give.
Instead of hiding, i want to let out all my feelings.

You silly girl.
Words do not always express ones' feelings.
Look at the eyes!
People can lie with words,
but not with their eyes.

I'm sorry. If i have ever hurt you
in any way, I'm truly sorry.
I sincerely mean that.

You are more than worthy of any man's love.

You are more beautiful than any woman
I've met in my life.
I just want to say that
before i leave.

You jerk.

Since when did you start liking me?
From the first day i met you.
I saw that lipstick mark,
and i wanted to kiss you.

I know, the kind of love i've
always dreamed of really exists.

Guy (when meeting the girl's parents)
Yes, I do love her,
but I don't want to marry her yet.

Perasaan

Amat tawar hati.

I don't know

Distance isn't a big factor in a relationship.
Communication is.

But most of all,
commitment is the biggest.

Realisation

An "I Miss You" would only be worth if there's an "I Miss You Too" in return.

Is It?

Accept joy, even though you're afraid it might end one day! - Paulo Coelho

I think it's heading there. It's ending. I can see the signs.

Late Bloomer

I am a late bloomer.

NOT, referring to my
physical body shape,
mind you.

More like, in being free
and being able to
explore things.

I am very much lucky that
i have that opportunity
to do so after i make that
drastic decision to studied far,
far away from home, Penang.

From there, i kinda like
try anything.

And now, i am blessed with this
boyfriend who
champions the fact that
i want to try new things.

He encourages it. Cos he knows
that i do think about what
i am doing and the consequences.

He does help me becoming
who i am today. He did change me;
i have to admit to be,
err.. i don't know the word.
I don't dare to say it.
Cos it bad.

Anyways, just saying that
for most of others, they do all these
stuff when they were in their teens.

Me, i started late.

But they, who said living life
has an age limit?

It's all about you, baby!

Lost

Laling,

if this is what you want me to be,
then you have succeed.

For i am becoming unfeeling.

If that glorious day do come,
bear in mind that
you just lost me.

Death of Heart

Serasa hati sudah mati.
Macam tiada perasaan.

Itu yang dilalui minggu ini.
Mengapa ya?

Hasil bet yang dibuat?

Takkanlah.

Tapi betullah. Hati semacam
tiada perasaan.
Rasa cinta yang keterlaluan
sudah tiada.
Rasa takut dan sedih kerana
terlalu cinta, juga tiada.

Tiada perasaan.

Tapi jauh di sudut hati, rasanya
memang tahu ada cinta.

Adakah hati sudah mati?

Atau hati ini merajuk?
Merasa bosan dan fed-up
dengan segala.

Hairan, mengapa boleh berlaku?

Sejak dua menjak sudah berani
memikirkan perkara yang tidak
pernah difikirkan pun.

Kalau dahulu, serasa mahu memikirkannya
sudah mengalir air mata berjujuran
kerana enggan memikirkan apa
akan terjadi kalau
tidak bersamanya.

Tapi sekarang, sudah berani.
Bukan berani memikirkan kehidupan
tanpanya. Namun memikirkan, sedikit,
adakah saya enggan menunggu lagi?

Saya lepaskan saja dan tunggu takdir
yang menentukan?

Mengapa mahu mengalah?

Hati saya sudah penat agaknya.
Bosan, merajuk atas segala.

Mungkin bukan semua alasan itu.

Mungkin juga, hati sudah kuat.
Kental dan tabah. Maka
tidak lagi mengalir air mata.
Tidak lagi merasa cinta yang mendalam
atau terlalu amat.

Ah, saya tidak mahu begini.

Saya tidak mahu berada dalam
kehidupan tanpa passion.

Saya mahu merasa cinta yang teramat itu.

Saya mahu menangis, dan ketawa.

Saya mahu memikirkannya setiap saat
walaupun saya merana.

Saya mahu dia sentiasa dalam ingatan
saya walau apa yang saya sedang buat.

Saya mahu melalui cinta yang mendalam
persis dongengan yang kita baca.

Saya mahu semua itu.

Maka hati,
saya tidak percaya yang
awak sudah mati.

Saya terima yang awak sudah penat.

Namun bertahanlah.

Saya tahu awak masih percaya.

Saya tahu awak tabah dan kental.

Saya tahu masih wujud rasa cinta
yang mendalam itu dalam diri awak.

Cuma kini, awak lebih pandai kawal ya.

Tapi, sekali sekala itu...
benarkanlah perasaan cinta yang teramat
itu, muncul ya.

Saya mahu perasaan itu.
Saya mahu hidup dengan perasaan itu.

Ya, saya mahu perasaan cinta
terhadapnya itu, sentiasa membara dalam
diri saya ini

sehingga akhir hayat saya.

On Giving Up

When you're ready to give up,
remember why you held on for so long
and what it meant to you.

Are You?

I can't promise u a perfect relationship without arguments over our differences,
however I can promise u as long as you're trying, then I'm staying.

Understand This

If you don't call me all day I understand,
when you don't text me all day I understand,
when I stop loving you I hope you understand.

So True

Its crazy how you can be in a relationship and STILL feel alone
because that person you love isn't giving you enough attention or love.

The Best So Far

If he loves you, then don't waste that.
You might never be able to get it back.

10 More Quotes (Again) To Express Me Better

1) Never cry for anyone, because those you cry for, don't deserve your tears and those who are deserving will never let you cry.

3) How do you find the words to say goodbye, when your heart don't have the heart to say goodbye?

5) An #Aquarius finds the need to explain everything, just as they'd prefer getting explanations out of you!

6) Isn't it crazy that in life, the person who brings out the best in you & makes you strong, is actually your weakness?

8) The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives.

10) To make a relationship work, focus on what you appreciate about the other person, and not your complaints.

What Was I Thinking

In an attempt to make a
light entri (sambil dengar
lagu Heart Vacancy oleh
The Wanted)

I don't know why
When i have guys
wanting me,
liking me,
loving me,
to be their girl friend,
to be their life partner,
to be their wife,
to be their angel in heaven.

And instead, i chose you.

Wait, maybe i don't choose
you.
More like, it's being
decided by God that
I fall for you.
I don't control what
my heart wants.
I even said 'I hate you'
on our first year of
friendship.

Others, they
will and would, i know,
appreciate me more,
treat me better,
love me more,
lavish me with
their affection, care,
gifts, help,
love.

They would guard me
fiercely, even jealously.
They would ask how my day was,
and how i am, what i have
been doing today, on whether
i am sick, or ok, or sad.

Would be in constant contact,
sms-es, phone calls.
Would find time to see me,
spend time with me.

Would try to please me, makes
me happy, would try to give
full attention to me,
listen to my stories,
fulfilling me wishes.

Would care about my whereabouts,
would not want me to go out
late at night. Would not want me
to put myself in danger.
Would do the gentleman way
and not put any burden on me.

I want all that. Of course!
Every girl alive would want
all the above. That is the 100%
perfect guy. Their prince
charming.

But i don't have that.

Instead i have you.

Someone i hated before, fell in love
with (I did not choose you,
my heart did),
more accurately, God has
destined it to be.

I end up with you.

I have been thinking
a lot lately. Thinking
of the unthinkable.

It's like i dare to do
what i think i wouldn't have
the courage to do before.

I am tired.
I want to forget about
this waiting process and move on.

Move on as in, let go.
I am fed-up with the
constant, nagging worry in
my head and mind about
this uncertainty.

I know, i have waited 3
long years for him.
And when i received some
sort of clarity from him
this year, it became more certain
that i am not waiting on
nothing.

It is there. I am not dreaming.
Us do exists.

But weirdly enough that
when there is an US, it became
more and more difficult to
wait. Its like a want more.

How greedy of me.

Seriously, i thought i can wait.

But its so difficult to wait
now that we are together.

It's just weird.

I am thinking more of letting go.

But at the same time, its just
a small nagging. Its not something
i have the courage to do.
Hopefully i don't. Not ever.
And that i never have to
use that. I hope i never
have to let go.

I sincerely hope with all
my heart, that i can wait.

What I Am Feeling Now

"Someone Like You" by Adele

I heard
That you're settled down
That you
Found a girl
And you're
Married now

I heard
That your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you

Old friend
Why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me", I begged
"I'll remember", you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead."
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead,
Yeah.

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday
It was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise
Of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me", I begged
"I'll remember", you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead."

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known
How bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me", I begged
"I'll remember", you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me", I begged
"I'll remember", you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead

Uh huh

Tears are words that need to be written - Paulo Coelho

Uh huh.
Macam tau-tau aja what i
am feeling at the moment.

There are, some personal
stuff that i want to write.
Not necessarily share, but
yeah, write it down.

Me, being a writer...
That's how i show my emotions.

A gf said that, susah nak nampak emmy marah.
So true.

Susah juga nak nampak me sad.

Simpan aja.

Cuma kepada kawan-kawan rapat, dan
dia aja tau.

But do they appreciate?
After knowing the real me,
who is not as strong as i
may seem?

Do you know people who appear
to be strong is the one that
needs the most love?

I detect a regret in you laling.
Please don't be. I am only
human. I sure can wait for
you but there will be times
when i am at my lowest and i just
cry and felt so lost.

And i just want you to be
there (here) for me.

What am i babbling here?

Oh, tears. Yes, they are
powerful. I seldom used it.
Cuma at the urging of some
makciks, that they advised
me to sometimes show my tears to
you laling, so that you know
that i suffer.

I may look strong, and yes, i am.
But in the end, i am only human,
a female albeit.

Please understand that.

In relationship (which we are;
according to your own words),
there has to be a give and a take.
There can't be one person understands
and do all the giving.
It has to be both.

It takes two to tango,
and it takes US to make our
relationship works.

I know i love you deeply,
I know i will wait for you
patiently,
I know i will try my utmost
best to be with you, and
to make our relationship
works, but
don't just rely on me to
make it happen.
I am only human. There are no guarantee
when one day my heart just gave
up and i will have to go away,
for waiting too long for you
to realize my worth.

I am not saying that
you are Bad now. You are okay.
You try, sometimes. I understand you.
And that is why i can still wait for you.

Just, word of precaution,
don't take me for granted.
Once in a while, do
remember that i am here,
waiting for you. Try to
look for me, from your
busy life, me, waiting in
one corner for you.

Waiting for you to treat
me as i am worth.

I love you, too much.
(Should try to decrease it,
so that it will hurt less..
but i can't)

I am just in love with you.

Make You Feel My Love

By Adele

When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you
A warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you
For a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you
Haven't made
Your mind up yet
But I would never
Do you wrong
I've known it
From the moment
That we met
No doubt in my mind
Where you belong

I'd go hungry
I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling
Down the avenue
No, there's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
Though winds of change
Are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing
Like me yet

I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love

Words

Paulo Coelho: Sometimes it’s what you don’t say that counts"

I have a hard time
expressing my feeling
verbally.

I guess most true writers
are like that. They are not
good in expressing what they
feel upfront, in front of
people.

They do it better in
words.

I am one too. That's why i
write. And then i will e-mail
him what i wrote.

Before this i did not
inform him. But let's say that
there are some 'friends'
inform him of my blog and
he starts reading it.

There goes my silent love
letter to him.

But weirdly enough, its a
blessing. Cos now, he knows
how i feel. And it helped
with our relationship. To
become where it is right now.

Like the entri on i dreamt a dream.

That entri sparks what
happened on the 9th of Jan.

The entri when he was hospitalized
for accident, now that one,
he confessed makes him sad.

I believe in writing what i am
feeling at that moment so
that the words become alive for those
who read it and it becomes
believable.

You, my laling are those
guys who finds it hard
to say what you are feeling
in words kan.

You told me that what
you feel, i can feel by your touch.
I believe that. Since our
first time.

That is why i find it
hard not seeing you. I know your
smses and phone calls doesn't really
convey your feelings.

I want to see you, be with you
in physical, and touch you and
feel your touch so that
i can feel what you are feeling.

And that is, you love me too.

Like i do you.

Will Be There

Laling,
talking to you
i find out something.

This feeling of
realisation, that i
am not in your life.

And you seem lost.
Or maybe just busy,
with too many things
going on.

But i have a feeling
that i am not in your life.

I wasn't that devastated.
Its more like, i was,
in awe, but not shocked.
Its more of a
realisation.

That i am not in your life.

Laling,

Did you ever think of me?
Like i do of you for
every second and every minute
of my life.

Did you include me, in anything
that you do, like
i do mine, thinking that
how wonderful it is if
we were together watching this,
or doing this.

I sense that you are
somewhat lost. Do you
know what you want?

Maybe you just need to
be reminded. You just need to
talk to someone of your
dreams. If so, then our
talk just now is a good one
for you, i hope.

Like it did mine.

I have always been
positive in us. That's how
i survive 4 years
with you. But at the same
time, i am practical enough
to prepare myself for
the inevitable.

I can't even say it.

I refuse to. But you got me.

I know already what i
am going to do, if the worst
happen.

I imagine myself living
like Jane Austen. After her
first and only love tumbled,
she lived alone and wrote.

That's what i imagine myself
to do. Oh laling, know that
there won't be anyone else
in my life, than you.

For i can't imagine forcing
myself to live without love.

Love that i feel only
towards you. Unexplainable,
ungovernable, like a riot
in the heart and nothing
to be tamed of.

I can't explain my love
towards you. I can't. It
baffles me too when i realise
that i fell in love with you.

And being in love with you still.

No matter how you treat me.

Been Wanting

Now that i am really
in a relationship, i
am more aware, more cautious
of not putting any negative
thoughts in the blog.

Its like i refuse to let,
show the negativity (issues?
problems? or just my feelings?)
on paper, typed and make
it real.

It is real. But then
it will pass. It always pass.
But it also comes back.
And it comes in circle, a roller
coaster ride. Up and down. Happiness,
pleasure and pure love balanced
with the tears, sadness, and
frustration.

Deep in my heart, i know
and believe all the good
in our relationship.

Its when i am down, am sad,
am tired, when hormones played a
trick on my brain and heart,
thats when i sometimes crumble
and succumb to temptation.

Temptation to become pushy, clingy,
obsessed, insecure.

I am not that. I am strong.

My friends said that. I know
that. Cuma, sometimes
in my weaker moments, i slip.

And of course im not
at fault. I am only human.
To add at that, i am a female.
Yes, a female with emotions.

No matter how practical or logic
i can be, i am still a female.

Isn't that what attracts you
to me?

That i am me. And that i am different
from other girls.

Please reflect on that
when ever you become frustrated
and angry with me.

Cos i have never been out
of love with you. No matter
what you do or say to me.

I am in love with you.
Always been.
Will always be.

Always. (your words)

Am I Ready?

I regret it.

I regret the fact that when
he said, 'i rasa i dah
ready tok settle down',
i freak out, wouldn't
meet him in his eyes,
and keep on talking as
if he never said anything.
Twice.

I regret that.
Cos now, i don't know
how to approach the subject.

Like, should i
'Laling, ingat tak u penah
cakap ari tu, pasal...'

Or, 'Laling, i am ready.'

Ready for what?

Sigh.

I want to explain why
i freaked out.

I know some of my close
friends were like,
how come you freak out?
i thought this is what you want?
bla bla bla.. yeah yeah.

I thought so too.

But i freaked out.
Period.

So, i guess i wasn't ready
as i thought i was.

But after the event,
the day after, i sit
on the subject and
ponder.

And think to myself
hey, i am ready.

I have been ready
since i realise that
i fell in love
with him on 22 April 2008.

He is the only guys i
could think of of saying YES
when he ask (not if).

I remembered all the guys
that have asked me before.
I remembered mostly Rizal.
He was then, my number 2
guy. Number one, of course has
and always been my bf la.

When Rizal approached
the marriage subject, there
was no hesitation and doubt
in my mind to say No.

But whenever i imagine
my bf asking me, i am certain
and know whole heartedly,
without a doubt
that my answer is Yes.

So, yeah.
I am ready.
Truthfully said, i can't wait
to start living my life
with him.

I imagine it will be more
challenging and 'colourful'
and unpredictable than what
we are going through.

I mean, look at us. We
are two different person. But
we clicked. We challenge
each other, support each
other, love each other.
And understands each other.
Enough toleration and communication
and spunk. And annoyance
and irritation and ego too.

What's the reason for me
to settle down?

Cos i am head over heels
in love with him?

YES.

Cos i know he is the one?

YES.

Cos he is my prince charming?

YES.

Cos he is the perfect man for me?

YES.

Cos he can controls me, and i respect him and
try my best to accept him for who he is?

YES.

And yes, me and him,
we have this chemistry
that is totally undeniable.
Sparks actually surrounds us
and shoots across the room
and people around us reacts
to it.

Trust me, you have to be
there, to believe it!

Sigh, to be in love..

So, yes i am ready.

The fact that i don't know
how to cook, doesn't stop me.

The fact that i am not ready for
kids, doesn't deter me away.

The fact that i still treasure my freedom
and my alone time, doesn't change my mind at all.

The fact that i have lots more goals and dreams
to do, be achieve and grasp, doesn't deter my spirit.

I want to start living my life
together with him.

I am ready!

His Birthday, Part II

For his 28th birthday (this year), which
will be due in 3 more days,
i planned something.

Hell, of course i plan something.

The idea came on Monday 27th July (or was it Sunday)?
Oh well, so the idea came
spontaneously. I thought it over,
briefly but adamantly.
I make plans,
and execute them there and then.

So later that evening, i
went to Midvalley to check on
some lesson. To see
how much they charge and
the availability to teach me
in a short time (a week).

It was a success!
Love that place, and the guys (all guys)
in that shop. The owner (a chinese guy)
is very helpful and helped me
there and then.

My 'teacher' is a young guy name
Kautsar.
He's the sort of guy
you'd see in a band. Long curly hair that reaches
his shoulder. I think he is younger
than me. But i never asked.

Anyway, he has been very
helpful. He started teaching
me on Tuesday itself.
I came with nothing.
Luckily the shop provided
everything; from the lesson book
to the music instrument to
the small stuff.

First lesson was good. It gives me
motivation to continue.

Then i was busy, super busy
with my office's performance.
We had dikir barat practice every
evening starting wed. i was rushing
on wed with my office work, dikir
barat practice, lesson and my own
private tutors.

thursday was even hectic.
we got dikir barat practice the
whole day cos the farewell dinner
for dato pbk is at night.
so between practice, i rush to midvalley
during lunch hour for the music lesson.

in the end, the dikir barat
was a success!

i was exhausted.

firday came, and i didnt have
my music lesson, although i had tutors
and such. i practiced a couple of hours that
night until i figured that i
should stop as not to angered my neighbours
with the sumbang sound i made.

saturday, i have something in malacca during
the day. a 'bapakku kawen lagi' themed
wedding. during the night, music lesson and practices.
the last one before my sunday
recording.
wow, i was really in it. and at the same time
scared and know, that i am soooo not ready.
(met key and kc there)

sunday came, i had to teach
in the afternoon. after that
i rush to wangsamaju area where
the hotsound studio is located. its
a jamming studio. memang best!
i got lost but managed to arrive on time, 4pm.

my videographer, remy was also there.
you see, there was only the 2 of us.
i did invite some friends, but none showed up.
i was a bit, down but in a way i think
its better that none showed up though.

i was horrible. we did a 5 takes. going through
the song from beginning until the end.
(did i mention i love the studio?)

i told remy, you used what you have and
do whatever you can to save my video.
make it a funny one, since i can't really
perform as well as i wanted to.

ahfa came later, rather late, but still
i am grateful that he did came.
we lepak for half an hour at chawan bangsar then,
before i head to Plan B Bangsar Village for
dinner with my two gf;s Al and Chena.

Overall, life is good. I can't wait to see
the end product. Although i can expect
something sweet, cute and yet funny in the
video.

Laling, i hope you love it.
And i hope you know how much
i love you.

His Birthday Part I

I still remember what i did
for his 2008 birthday.

I plan everything in 8 stages.
(Wait, i got to take my Thinker book where
i record everything)

I want to make it memorable
Different
Something he'd remember

So i plan everything
started from 1st July

His 1st July gift was a poem
(For the love of God i can't remember
what was the poem about)
But i still remember when i gave him the card that
contains the poem, he was
so afraid to take it.
He thought it was a love confession ke apa.

His 2nd July gift was biscuits
from Famous Amos
(I know he loves it)
I gave the black colored ones; my fave!

His 3rd gift was a book i think
(Its entitled Its Not How Good You Are,
Its How Good You Want To Be)
I also got a copy of the book.
Now, why the book? Its bcos
its easy, simple and something
that i was sure he'd read.
(He doesn't read much)

His 4th gift was a duit-duit plant.
I sent it to his house that day.
(Lain dari lain, kan?)

His 5th gift was a container of chocs
from Famous Amos
(You know the small rocks with
various colors? Yeah, that one!)
He never eat it. He kept it where
his friends can see it but he didn't allow
anyone to eat it.
(I think its still on his fridge
in the kitchen till today, unopened)

His 6th gift was a DVD.
(Its entitled Cruel Intentions)
Now why that particular story? Cos one, i love it.
I love the lesson in the story. And i directed
the lesson to him.

His 7th gift was a bouquet of flowers + 3 helium baloons.
The flowers were 'kekwa' i think; 3 different colors.
( I can't remember the colors)
And i add 3 helium baloons.
And i ask the shop to sent it
to our office.
(Yes, we were from the same
office)
Now there was a slight glitch in the
plan. These was supposed to arrive
on the 8th (on his birth-day) but
he was unavailable on that day.
So i ask the shop to send it
one day earlier. Hasten much? Luckily
they can do it. But you know what
sucks? I was elsewhere that evening
for a meeting that i cannot not go.
So i rely on my colleagues to
inform me how did he react upon
receiving those gifts.
He parade his gifts around at
the office.

And lastly, on the 8th day
i sms-ed him 2 pantuns.
(I did not keep the copy of
the pantuns nor remember what
was the pantuns all about)

So yeah, that what i did for his
2008 birthday.

His 2009? Oh i actually forgot.
I only remembered a few days later.
Then i bought him a set of Body Shop
products for men cos i like their perfume
on him.

His 2010 birthday, i brought him
to Xcess bookstore at Amcorp Mall
and let him choose any 4 books that he
wants.

I will regall you what happens in his
2011 birthday surprise.

Fingers crossed!

Why Am I So Sad?

These past two days,
Why am i so sad.
And ended up crying.

No matter how rationally
my brain give ideas on
how to divert this feeling
By doing things, concentrate
on others and such.
Its to no avail.

Maybe because of this
multi task capabilities
that i owned and good at
i do something but
think about it at the same
time
and sad, and think about why
why and why
and ended up crying while doing
something

Pathetic much

Wants so much to talk about
it to him
Have to cos i believe
in communicate my problems
and what ever it is in
my head to him so that
i can be solved
or at least heard. knew

So that he knows how i feel

But when is the right time
Fear, fear of disturbing him
At taking it out at a bad time
But then suffering in silence
is bad, bad enough
I need to say it.
I need to talk it out.
To him.
No one else.

Apa itu?

Sedang saya tergapai-gapai mencari arah
Hilang tuju dan tidak tahu halanya

Cuba saya cari, selami dan selidiki hati
Menyemak lembaran nota peneman diri

Satu-satu tulisan diperhalusi
Untuk mencari apa yang hilang dalam diri

Serasa bertahun lamanya mencari
Memikirkan apa yang dimahukan ini

Kemahuan diri yang kecil-kecil
Didapati satu per satu

Dengan kamahuan dan usaha sendiri
Dicapai tanpa perlu merendah diri

Tapi masih rasa tidak lengkap itu
Masih merasakan ada satu ruang lohong

Tertanya-tanya apa yang dicari ini
Kasih pada-Nya, yang menyesatkan diri?

Mendapat kesedaran mengenai sesuatu
Si jejaka melayu saya

(tidak dapat diungkapkan dengan kata)

Dia. Selama ini
Ia adalah dia.

Si dia.
Dia yang menitipkan perasaan aneh
dalam diri saya.

Dia yang selama ini sentiasa menjadi
keutamaan saya

Dia yang sentiasa berlegar di pinggir
fikiran saya

Tidak kira, tidak kira

Adakah dengan dia, ia berakhir?

Mengapa Ia Penting?

Awak tidak faham. Mengapa penting sangat hari ini?
Semua orang pun nak pertikaikan kepentingan hari ini.
Suka hati sayalah!
Ini hari saya.

Dan walau macam manapun saya cuba ubah diri dan terima
bahawa hari ni adalah seperti hari-hari biasa
dan ia tidak penting. Ia penting!

Dan saya akan menjadi sebak
dan mengalirkan air mata memikirkan bahawa
hari ini penting tetapi... awak tidak faham.

Dalam senarai perkara yang saya mahu buat pada tahun ini,
perkara pertama dalam senarai adalah
meluangkan hari lahir saya bersama awak!

Sekarang jam menunjukkan pukul 10.17 malam
dan jelas sekali selepas perbualan kita tadi
kita tidak akan sempat bersama sebelum hari ini berakhir.

Awak tahu tak betapa sakitnya hati saya
apabila awak tidak meletakkan saya sebagai
keutamaan awak?

Saya tidak berhargakah?

Awak tahu saya akan sabar menunggu
Awak tahu saya akan setia
Awak tahu walau banyak mana air mata tumpah
atau sebanyak mana saya merajuk
atau marah mengamuk
Saya akan kembali pada awak
Dan saya akan setia menunggu
Mungkin sebab itu saya tidak berharga
Kerana awak tahu saya akan menunggu

Tidak kiralah apa yang awak buat
Walaupun saya sangat terluka
Walaupun saya sedih sekali
Walaupun saya teramat kecewa
Walau sebanyak mana saya cuba fahamkan awak
tentang apa yang saya rasa

Awak akan buat keputusan yang sama

Saya penatlah awak
Sudah tiga tahun saya menunggu
bersabar dengan sikap dan kerenah awak
kerana cinta
dan kepercayaan bahawa cinta itu akan berbalas
dan awak akan melayan saya bagaikan bidadari syurga
yang paling berharga dalam hidup awak
isteri dan kawan baik awak
yang pertama dan terakhir
di dunia dan akhirat

Tinggi harapan saya kan?

Tapi saya tidak pernah putus asa tau
Saya terus menunggu
Dan apabila awak mahu saya tunggu dua tahun lagi
Saya tidak teragak menjawab pasti
Apalah sangat dua tahun ya
Apabila saya sudah menunggu tiga tahun lamanya

Penuh sengsara namun
saya gembira

Kerana saya cintakan awak
Dan setiap kali saya bersama awak
Saya akan gembira, teramat gembira
Bagaikan dunia itu kita berdua saja yang wujud

Namun ada kalanya saya penat
Saya kan wanita, amat nipis emosinya
Mudah terasa
Sensitif
Senang sekali dilukai

Namun saya juga lembut
dan mudah memaafi

Awak juga yang berkata begitu
Awak ada kuasa atas saya
Saya tidak dapat mahu marah lama-lama
dengan awak

Saya tidak boleh merajuk lama
dengan awak

Perasaan mahu bersama awak
mengatasi semua kebencian yang wujud
dalam diri saya terhadap awak

Saya amat mencintai awak
dan mungkin itu adalah kesilapan saya.

Bagaimana sampai ke hari ini?

Mahu berkongsi sebuah cerita.

Berlaku pada 22 April 2008.

Bangun pagi di sebuah resort tepi pantai. Jam kira-kira pukul 7. Pergi ke sliding door, buka dan angin pantai mengalun masuk.

Tersenyum memandang ke laut. Aman dan tenang. Menikmati seketika. A dreamy look.

Terpandang sepasang manusia, lelaki dan wanita, berjalan-jalan di tepi pantai. Kedua-dua memakai putih. Berpegangan tangan. Mesra.

Tiba-tiba suatu realization, kenyataan muncul, masuk menerjah pantas. Tanpa diduga. Terus sahaja. Dari-Nya.

I'm in love! Muncul di benak.

Air mata terus bergenang dan mengalir deras. Dan jatuh terjelepok, terduduk. Tangan mencengkam erat di permaidani lantai. Menangis tidak tertahan.

Dan bertanya dalam hati, why, why, why.

Mengapa dia?

Mengapa dia?

Mengapa dia?

DIA tidak menjawab.

Ah, masakan ada jawapan tentang cinta. Hati berbisik.

Kita tidak boleh pilih.

Ia... datang sendiri.

Persoalannya, Mengapa. Dia.

Seharusnya, 'celebrating love', menikmati akan kewujudan perasaan cinta dalam diri.

Tetapi tidak. Oh... tidak.

Bertanyakan kepada-Nya mengapa si dia, kerana

Tahu sudah akan betapa mencabarnya cinta ini.

Sekiranya betul-betul membuat keputusan untuk cuba menggapainya.

Betapa sukarnya perjalanan untuk memperoleh cinta ini.

Cuba untuk mendapatkan, cinta si dia.

Menangis tanpa dapat ditahan sama sekali.

Dan termenung memandang laut, ombak mendayu tiba, ketenangan alam dan pasangan itu.

Memikirkan nasib diri.

Ah! Mencabarnya cinta ini.

Sejak dari itu, diri sendiri bermuhasabah

Memanjat kesyukuran akan wujudnya cinta dalam diri kepada si dia

Walaupun amat sukar. Walaupun perlu bertahan.

Perlu bersabar yang teramat. Perlu selalu memujuk diri.

Agar menerima hakikat, bahawa ini jalan yang telah dipilih

Dan diputuskan.

Maka tidak perlu mempersoalkan tatkala hati berasa letih yang teramat.

Oh, hati sememangnya bengkak dan penuh dengan perasaan.

Yang kadang-kadang penat menghadapi segala

Dan menangis pada malam yang sunyi.

Cuba memegang hakikat wujudnya cinta itu dalam diri

Dan ia bukan sekadar mainan perasaan, crush yang

cuba ditepis berbulan-bulan lamanya.

Ia cinta.

Terima kasih Tuhan.

Bencinta

Benarkan ku 'tuk berbicara...
Bicara terus ke hati mu.. Hati mu..
Hati yang penuh rasa ragu
Jangan terus pergi
Tanpa mendengar ku
Mungkin mudah
Untuk kau terus berlalu
Nanti dulu
Berikanlah waktu
Untuk aku, untuk kamu

Ingatkah lagi waktu kau bersama ku
Kaku aku melihat mu
Lidah kelu sedangkan aku
Mahu kau tahu
Aku cinta pada mu
Benci pada mu
Cinta pada mu

Ke tepi lihat ku berlalu
Pasti itu yang terbaik untuk ku
Tiada lagi mahu ku tahu
Tentang hidup kamu
Tentang mati kamu
Aku tahu
Engkau tahu apa yang mata ku tahu
Apa yang kau tunggu
Mahu aku buka pintu?

Ingatkah lagi waktu kau bersama ku
Kaku aku melihat mu
Sedang aku mahu kau tahu
Dengar kata ku
Aku cinta pada mu
Benci pada mu
Cinta pada mu

Sakitnya aku
Membenci kamu
Sakit lagi mencintai mu
Dan aku pergi
Tapi kembali
Benci aku mencintai diri mu
Ku benci... Kamu
Ku cinta... Kamu

- Faizal Tahir

Sampai Syurga

Ku membenarkan jiwaku
Untuk mencintaimu
Ku persembahkan hidupku
Untuk bersama kamu
Dan diriku untuk kamu
Belum pernah kumerasai begitu
Semua itu telah berlalu
Harapanku palsu
Dan mungkin hari yang satu
Terus ku tertunggu
Di hatiku.. masih kamu
Belum pernah ku ingin terus menunggu.. oh

Aku lemah tanpa kamu
Ku inginmu dampingi ku
Aku fahami aku bukan terbaik
Untuk dirimu
Sampai syurga ku menunggu
Sampai syurga ku cintamu
Hanya satu
Hanya kamu..

Ku membiarkan hatiku
Untuk merinduimu
Ku menghamparkan sakitku
Untuk tatapan kamu
Bersamamu.. harapanku
Hilang dalam terang yang membutakan ku..
Dan segala yang ku ada
Ku berikan semua
Untuk dirimu saja
Ku mahu..
Dirimu..
Bahagia untuk selamanya
Biar sampai syurga
Aku menunggu cinta darimu
Agar ku sempurna….
Namun aku tetap aku
Yang terbaik untuk diriku
Hanya satu…..

Aku lemah tanpa kamu
Ku inginmu dampingi ku
Aku fahami aku bukan terbaik
Untuk dirimu
Sampai syurga ku menunggu
Sampai syurga ku cintamu
Hanya kamu..
Aku lemah tanpa kamu
Ku inginmu dampingi ku
Aku fahami aku bukan terbaik
Untuk dirimu..
Sampai syurga ku menunggu
Sampai syurga ku cintamu
Hanya satu
Hanya kamu..

- Faizal Tahir

Hanyut

Harus bagaimana lagi
Dan terus begini
Dengarkan aku
Lihat ke mataku

Cukup sudah kau menghukum
Salahku tetap salahku
Benarkan ku berbicara
Agar bisa pulih semua

Namun harus sampai bila
Kau kan diam seribu bahasa

Chorus
Maafkanlah ku tak bisa hidup tanpa kamu
Fahamilah ku tak mampu terus tanpa kamu
Bagaimana ku nanti
Bila tiada mengganti
Yang ku ada hanya kamu saja

Saat mata terpejam
Hanya kau ku terbayang
Menghapus semua segala rasa di jiwaku

Saat mata terbuka
Kamulah yang pertama
Tak mampu aku
Bayangkan
Hidup tanpa dirimu

Ulang Chorus

Aku memang bersalah
Selalu saja mengabaikan mu
Dan tapi dah ku sedari
Segala perit kau lalui
Ku terlupa kau terluka

Dan memang selalu
Aku bersalah
Selalu saja mengabaikan mu
Meninggalkan mu
Dan tetapi itulah aku sedari
Segala perit yang kau lalui
Kerna diriku yang terus hanyut

Maafkanlah ku tak bisa hidup tanpa kamu
Bagaimana ku nanti
Bila tiada mengganti
Yang ku ada hanya kamu saja

Bagaimana ku nanti
Bila kau tak di sisi
Yang ku ada hanya kamu saja

- Faizal Tahir

Truthfully, I don't know anything anymore

I...

There's so many things lingering in my head. Goes back and forth. I don't know what on earth is happening. I thought that there is nothing to be worry about. That everything is good. That everything did went well.

What happen?

I just had to ruined it, i guess?

Is it?

Do i just think too much?

Am i just afraid, scared?

Some of the things said hit me home. Not sure whether to admit that its true or not. But, maybe there is some truth.

I'm all jumbled inside. My thoughts. My emotions. Not a good time to think really, what more make any decisions!

But, i can't rest until i find out what's wrong!

Damn i'm hard on myself.

Or, its just that i am scared?

Guess i am not that brave eh??!
