(unsure of the title)

The night has a thousand eyes,
      And the day but one;
 Yet the light of the bright world dies
      With the dying sun.

 The mind has a thousand eyes,
      And the heart but one:
 Yet the light of a whole life dies
       When love is done

-Francis William Bourdillon

p.s: love, what would we be withoutit.

stories.

you know my stories

and i know yours

we're on the same page

but we have different stories

our chapters are long and short

but we have things in common

that no one else understands.

we share stories

you and me

of day and night

of friends and foes

of love and life.

i know your stories

and you know mine

we're on different pages

but we have the same stories

our lines are short and long

and we have different things

that some people may understand.

we keep secrets

you and me

of night and day

of foes and friends

of life and love.

i am a friend

i am an enemy

i am whoever you choose me to be.

you are a friend

you are an enemy

and you are whomever i choose you to be.

p.s: there's an inkling of hope.

poof!

all of these will be over.

none of them will matter, 

no longer.

p.s: stressed and my studies are slipping away.

secret chests.

in love i am 
for the right
and wrong reasons
i'd sacrifice
a heart or two
for you to keep
in a secret chest.


in love you are
for the right 
and wrong reasons
you'd keep
a heart or two
locked and sealed
in a secret chest.


in love you are
for the right 
and wrong reasons
you'd give
a heart or two
for me to keep
in a secret chest too.


in love i am
for the right
and wrong reasons
i'd hide
a heart or two
for you my dear
in a secret chest.


and that's how it goes.




p.s: a piece of me, all around me.

21

happy belated (111111, 21) birthday.

yesterday was once in a lifetime,

unless i get to live for another thousand years,

which is impossible because i'm only human,

and won't be as fun because the love ones aren't around.

so yesterday was once in a lifetime,

i turned 21,

had fun.

thankful. Alhamdulillah.

p.s: memories they become, memories they will remain.

take the risk

" it is a risk to love.

what if it doesn't work out?

ah, but what if it does. "

-Peter McWilliams-

p.s: take a chance. take the dive, fall from the sky.it's worth it.

aprisiasi

sedih kadang-kadang kita mengejar

berlari dengan gigih dan laju

tetapi sebenarnya

benda itu 

sudah

ada

sedih kan?

p.s: appreciate the special people and things you have.

just because

this is a list of just because:

just because i speak English quite fluently doesn't mean i come from a well-to-do family,

just because i wear stylish things doesn't mean they are expensive,

just because i study English doesn't mean i don't appreciate BM,

just because i talk a lot doesn't mean i'm confident,

just because i don't read that much doesn't mean i don't know anything,

just because i read a lot doesn't mean i know everything,

just because you're better than others at certain  things doesn't give you the right to degrade others,

just because i smile doesn't mean i'm happy,

just because i cry doesn't mean i'm sad,

just because i laugh doesn't it's funny,

just because i'm alone doesn't mean i'm lonely,

just because i'm not alone doesn't mean i'm not lonely,

just because your life sucks doesn't give you the ultimate right to end it,

just because you're here doesn't mean you have to forget people over there,

just because you go to the gym everyday doesn't mean you won't fall ill,

just because you're good looking doesn't mean people will be automatically attracted to you,

just because he doesn't say he misses you doesn't mean he has forgotten about you,

just because she's quiet doesn't mean she's weak,

just because they are the majority doesn't mean they are right,

just because we're friends now doesn't mean we would be friends forever,

just because i act like i don't care doesn't mean i really don't care,

just because i don't talk about it doesn't mean i'm not hurt,

just because i'm taking TESL doesn't mean i'll end up becoming an English teacher,

just because i love you doesn't mean i may not leave you,

just because i may leave doesn't mean i don't love you,

just because i love you.

just because, just, cause. you know?

p.s: the irony of it all

how Twitter changed my life.

i've made new friends

some friends become not so friendly

some friends remain who they are

some friends agree

but most of them agree

i should spend less time there

i should

and i will

p.s: i'll be better, insyallah.

disturbed.

if i could draw what my mind is looking like right now it'll be lines and circles intersecting each other at various points. i don't even know what i am doing anymore. don't you feel that way too sometimes? when you just feel like you want to throw everything away and just go somewhere new and not be bothered by what others think and just be careless and free,

my mind's made of patched up pictures of the past, little fragments of the future and wretched moments of the present all rolled up in a box. i'm lost, i'm tired, i need some sort of escape. i need you.

i miss being a kid. a kid knows what to do. he knows what he wants at least. he's happy and content with what he has. why is it that when we grow up we tend to make things complicated? why do we end up thinking too much? why are some people so carefree it seems? 

or maybe it's just me?

maybe it's just me. 

maybe.

may, be.

p.s: clueless, lost and confused.
