aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana;dengan kata yang tak sempat diucapkan

kayu kepada api yang menjadikannya abu
aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana;

dengan isyarat yang tak sempat disampaikan awan kepada hujan yang menjadikannya tiada

No One Knows Me Like You Do

You are my first love

My first dream that ever comes true.  I have longed you for so many years 

You were my stars, my idol, my goal. 
And then,.. suddenly you appeared, you held my hands, kissed, and said you wanted me to be your girlfriend. 

Love.. yes.. you have shown me : LOVE. 

Unfortunately we grew apart, drifted by values, squashed by hopes, scorned by prides. 

Now, after almost 25 years.. You still make me feel like I’m a princess. How I wonder, what did I do to deserve you. 

Now.. at this point when I’m happily married and so are you… what we have is even more than what I wished for… And I’m forever grateful. Alhamdulillah… 

Let’s Pretend

Look up !! And let’s watch the cottonlike clouds chasing each other, pretending that the blue sky has no feelings whatsoever.

Let’s laugh and sing, tell stories and throw comments about the world like we always do. 

Let’s lay down on our back without touching each other, but having the warmest hugs in the same time. 

Let’s Whisper to one another and giggle about it eventhough We didnt hear what we’ve been swishing about. 

Let’s pretend that we are pretending to need each other. 
Let’s pretend that we are pretending to be in love.
