Have you ever been in love? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and opens your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up this whole armor, for years, so no one can hurt you. Then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life.... You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like 'you can go whenever you want.' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the mind. It's a soul hurt, a body hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain..
Oh... waaw.... Sepertinya saya sudah menjadi anak yang hilang, tersesat entah di mana. Seiring bertambahnya usia, kita terlalu malas mengurusi urusan temeh, drama yang tidak jelas. Fokus pada perjuangan kita sendiri untuk menjadi manusia sehingga setiap momen rentan, mungkin akan berumur pendek dalam ingatan. Saat kamu mencapai tingkat dalam hidup menjadi baik-baik saja, kamu merasa tidak memerlukan apapun lagi. Tapi Kenyamanan itu yang justru menimbulkan kebosanan. But Sometimes, sometime... I miss those feelings, the freedom, the goosebumps when you see a new place, the joy of traveling, breathing air to your heart's content... being my self.
