Reserve

As I sat on the sofa, I leaned against an invisible shoulder.  I walked quickly right toward him. He also came toward me, so quickly that we almost hit each other's heads. We both laughed. The obstacle was that I couldn’t see what was holding me back today. 'I shouldn’t have run toward you. If I had been a little faster, we could have ended up hitting each other,' he said. I didn’t say anything. I thought the funnier this meeting began, the better it would be. Yet, typical him, he just a mind-reader. I only smiled and replied, "Let's just go walk, now." yet I remained frozen in space and time, just me and emptiness. We're walking to the city park and just went around, nothing really far but our steps actually might count like a mile. Restless just with him. I simply sat in silence, lost in my thoughts.

It Hurts A Little

Aku berharap, kendaraan yang menjemputku pulang segera datang. Karena aku letih menunggu di halte ini. 
Sesaat aku dapat termenung dan pikiranku entah kemana lalu sesaat aku kembali berada di halte.
Aku tidak dapat membayangkan begitu cepat banyak orang yang tidak kukenal datang dan pergi begitu saja di dalam satu waktu, satu tempat.
Terkadang ada mereka yang baik menyapaku dan mengajakku berbincang, berbagi kisah.
Terkadang ada mereka yang hanya duduk di sebelahku atau berdiri jauh dari tempatku ada dan memandangku penuh pertanyaan atau mereka sama sekali tidak menyadari keberadaanku.
Terkadang aku sendiri yang terlalu bodoh untuk memperhatikan detil-detil seperti itu.
Aku telah duduk dan berdiri berkali-kali dan kendaraan yang akan menjemputku belum sampai juga.
Mereka yang datang ke halte ini dan meramaikan suasana adalah hiburan dan ketenangan ku.
Lalu mereka pergi, setiap salah satu dari mereka pergi atau aku kembali sendiri, air mataku kembali berjatuhan.
Aku hanya mau pulang.
