Hey, Stranger

The first time I met you, I was paralyzed by your charm.
Hypnotized and feeling warm.
Then sat beside you, didn't know who you were.
We were stranger back then.

Your dazzling eyes knocked me down, that you did.
I didn't even know what was it.
It was something new for me to feel.
You were always there whenever and wherever I was.
Though it was just in a mind of mine.
Hey, stranger, what have you done?

Months passed earlier than I thought.
Weird... cause God brought you to my life.
Ten hours a day though I felt it wasn't enough.
Everyday was like a real fairy tale, that it was.
Hey, stranger, did you even remember how we were here?

The first time I met you, I knew what kind of person you were.
Cold hearted with guts, that you were.
This feeling was true and pure.
I was right because I got hurt.
But I'd stay not retreat.
Autumn and winter had passed.
Left us with spring and new hopes.
Hey, stranger, didn't you see that?

My Journey With Dogs

Kali ini gue akan menulis tentang persahabatan antara manusia dengan binatang. Terkadang (sering kali malah), binatang itu lebih berkemanusiaan daripada manusia itu sendiri. Keluarga gue adalah pecinta binatang. Dari jaman Eyang, Om, Tante, Mama, hingga gue... kami semua pecinta binatang. Segala jenis binatang pernah kami pelihara seperti, burung hantu, angsa, burung warna-warni (nggak tau namanya apa), kucing, monyet, hamster, dan paling sering... anjing. Ya, gue adalah keluarga muslim yang memelihara anjing. Tulisan ini hanya akan gue fokuskan pada pro dan kontra muslim memelihara anjing. Bisa dikatakan, anjing adalah bagian dari kehidupan gue sejak kecil. Dulu gue punya anjing namanya Pedro, campuran chow-chow dan anjing kampung. Nggak ingat sifatnya seperti apa, tapi Mama selalu cerita kalau Pedro adalah anjing terpintar dan tersetia yang pernah kami miliki. Di salah satu ceritanya, dulu gue pernah menunggangi Pedro selayaknya dia adalah kuda. Seja...

Pancasila, Nasionalisme, dan Eyangkung

Mungkin Eyangkung (Eyang Kakung, Kakek dalam bahasa Jawa) benci disebut-sebut sebagai pahlawan. Tapi, memang kenyataannya begitu. Tidak akan ada Indonesia tanpa Eyangkung dan para pahlawan yang lain. Eyangkung saya bernama Eyang Toegijo Kartosandjojo, beliau lahir di Solo pada 17 Agustus 1919. Eyangkung bersekolah di Neutrale H. I. S Solo dan beliau berprestasi di sekolahnya. Karena prestasi itulah beliau dibebaskan dari les persiapab masuk M. U. L. O. dan pada akhirnya beliau berhasil masuk tanpa melalui tes ujian masuk. Sebagai cucu kesekian, saya sangat bangga mempunyai sosok Eyangkung. Karena beliau, saya selalu bersumpah akan membawa nama baik keluarga. Saya nggak mau menjelekkan nama baik keluarga besar, saya nggak mau dibilang, "cucu pahlawan kok seperti itu?" (Walaupun saya ini memang tergolong bandel sih, cuma bandelnya masih sebatas wajar). Walaupun beliau wafat setahun sebelum saya lahir, banyak cerita yang sudah saya dengar maupun foto-foto beliau yang saya l...

The Vortex

A year ago Or Tonight Or Tomorrow. You are still the art... To me. Knowing, Meeting, Caring, Loving, Sensing, are like a gift from God for me to feel. It ain't about what you did in return. It ain't about how long that I am here. It ain't about what you think and what I think, or what someone thinks. It is purely because you already absorb every energy that I have. You are the vortex of the most beautiful art. You regain energy from every eyes that adore you. You slowly stole it. And now it is just me in here... as dead as the corpse. Wanting to feel again, but too afraid to be absorbed... again. Lol, this is just me... babling about you.

(Sedikit) Curhat

Alhamdulillah, 2017 is soon to be over! Rasanya bersyukur dan senang banget ternyata mayoritas Resolusi 2017 yang ditulis di akhir tahun 2016 kemarin sudah jadi kenyataan. Kehidupan perkuliahan itu sulit, serius. Apapun jurusan kamu, semua ada ups and downs nya. Gue yang sudah hampir menjadi mahasiswa angkatan tua, ngerasain banget jenuh-jenuhnya. Kasarnya, kalau bisa nikah sama pengusaha kaya raya mending langsung nikah, deh. Tapi... hidup itu nggak sepenuhnya kaya drama Korea. Let it flow, nikmati saja arusnya. Gue yang sekarang di semester 5, semakin mendengar desas-desus tentang diri gue sendiri di kampus. "Cuma modal muka", "dia nggak pinter, cuma dia deketin dosen biar nilai bagus", "gue gasuka sama Nita", dan tetek-bengek lainnya. Normal, namanya hidup itu penuh pro dan kontra. Sebenarnya gue sudah mendengar ini sejak gue di semester 1, sih, tapi makin ke sini semakin kelihatan siapa saja orang-orangnya. Bahkan, beberapa orang sudah membuat gue k...
