Intermezzo: crumbling and tearing

The taller the tree the more wind blows, they said.
Work hard until you don't need to introduce yourself, said them too.
I am at the 500th step to reach those.
It's still million stairs away to be climbed, though.

The thing is... they expect too much on me.
The perfection that they seek is haunting me.
Well, nobody's perfect but they still expect me to be.
It's killing me.
Once I make a mistake, they will judge me and talking behind my back.
And I am not strong enough to take that, almost everyday.
I am still a human.
I seek for chances to be better and better.

The ironic thing is, I am a perfection.
A symptom that is already running in my blood.
I can't see the world easily.
I see things in details.
I see people in very tiny details.
I read their mind.
I smell their gesture.

That's why, I am really overwhelmed by the imperfection that I have. The flaws that I don't want people to see it, yet they do.

I am afraid.

I am afraid of being bullied.

I am afraid of getting hurt.

I am afraid of being abandoned.

I am just a scared little girl.

And...

Today...

It seems like the worst day of my life.

It's not just about from the competition that I had earlier, but it comes from my inner circle.

A, B, C, D, etc. The problems come in a day. I repeat... IN A DAY!

God,

I need to protect my inner circle.

I need to keep them safe and sound.

I need to keep my mouth shut so they would not worry me.

I need to take care of the responsibilities.

I. Am. Overwhelmed.

My world is crumbling and tearing apart.
I ain't have a charm thus I only bring disaster to them.

True Colors

Lagu ini udah ada sejak gue kecil. Gue lupa siapa penyanyi aslinya, tapi yang jelas lagu ini udah di cover banyak orang. Sejak kecil gue seriiiiing banget dengerin lagu ini dimana-mana. Dan gue suka sama lagu ini. Sejak gue masih belom bisa A - B - C, Bahasa Indonesia aja masih ngaco apalagi ngerti Bahasa Inggris, gue suka lagu ini. Lagu ini tuh sesuatu. Dan gue pun akhirnya udah download lagu ini, tapi versi yang dinyanyiin Glee Cast. Terus finally juga udah tau maksud dari lagu ini. Here's the Lyric... You with the sad eyes Don't be discouraged Oh, I realize It's hard to take courage In a world full of people You can lose sight of it all And the darkness inside you Can make you feel so small But I see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors Are beautiful like a rainbow Show me a smile then Don't be unhappy Can't remember when I last saw

Two Worlds Collide

So I was listening to this song last night. Pretty old, it was from Demi Lovato's first album, Don't Forget. The lyrics really got me... Well probably, now I'm on Demi's phase back then when she was really insecure with her self... *** "Two Worlds Collide" She was given the world So much that she couldn't see And she needed someone to show her, Who she could be. And she tried to survive Wearing her heart on her sleeve But I needed you to believe You had your dreams, I had mine. You had your fears, I was fine. You showed me what I couldn't find, When two different worlds collide. La dee da dee da She was scared of it all, watching from far away. She was given a role, never knew just when to play. And she tried to survive Living her life on her own Always afraid of the throne But you've given me strength to find home. You had your dreams, I had mine. You had your fears, I was fine. You showed me what I couldn't find, When

Satu Dunia, Satu Tapak, Dua Rasa

Dalam gelap, seketika mata menjadi buta. Alunan musik nan lembut telinga telah tuli. Di sebuah pengungkapan, mulut seolah terjahit bisu. Dan di dalam perasaan ini, hati seketika bergejolak. Diam. Tak bergeming. Merelakan angin mencium raganya. Hanya mengamati dan menjaga. Tak berani unjuk diri untuk membela hati yang merana. Andaikan kelak bumi dan langit berjumpa, Bertemu di bentangan dunia, Apa kita dapat berhadapan di setapak yang sama? Memandang satu sama lain. Dari dekat. Menikmati waktu yang sedikit. Menghargai setiap tatapan. Peluklah hangat setiap kenangan. Kecuplah lembut setiap perjuangan. Biarkan terjadi euforia. Sorak-sorai yang menggema di seluruh pelosok. Ketika akhirnya dunia kita dipertemukan.

Is 'Sorry' Enough?

We are way too far. The days pass as we started to live our own life. Separately. And.... I hate it. I hate to admit that I miss you. I hate to realize that I was actually wrong. If only, We can turn back time. To a year when we first met. I would rekindled us. And now.... It's too late. I need to hide. I need to hide from you as far as possible. I need to hide from this mixed feelings. I need to hide from the fact that.... I am flipped. I am flipped because of you. Your gaze, your laugh, your voice... So mesmerizing I can't even lie. Those memories and my faults keep haunt me. So, before I say good bye.... Shall you forgive me? See you when I see you, my reflection.
