rasa yang terpendam


Akhir-akhir ini rasa itu sering menghampiriku. Rasa yang mungkin tidak lagi bisa ku sampaikan padanya, sesesak apapun ia menghimpitku, karena diri ini belum pantas untuk menyampaikannya. Belum? Apa suatu saat aku akan menjadi pantas? Entahlah.
Rasa yang pepatah bilang “… makin disimpan, maka ia akan makin berharga”. Itulah ‘rindu’. Aku sedang merindukan seseorang yang dulu bisa dibilang dekat denganku. Dia satu tahun lebih tua dariku, satu angkatan di atasku, berbeda jurusan namun masih satu fakultas. Awal aku melihatnya ketika masa ospek sedang berlangsung. Dia begitu bersemangat menyemangati kami, para mahasiswa baru. Tidak heran jika ia terkenal dengan panggilan ‘Kakak Semangat’. Aku bisa berkenalan dengannya karena seorang temanku yang suka padanya, tapi pada saat itu aku belum merasakan apa-apa. Aku sama sekali tidak pernah menyangka bahwa suatu hari ia bisa menjadi salah satu orang yang dekat denganku, tapi itulah skenario Allah yang penuh kejutan.
Seringnya kami bertemu dan jalan bersama memunculkan rasa suka dalam diriku terhadapnya. Namun, karena begitu baiknya ia padaku, aku pun berusaha mengendalikan rasa suka itu sehingga menjadi seperti rasa suka adik terhadap kakaknya. Apalagi hal ini “didukung” oleh sifat-sifat seorang kakak yang memang tidak aku dapatkan di Abangku. Ketika kami sudah jarang bertemu karena ia sibuk mengerjakan skripsinya, ada rasa kehilangan.
Suatu hari aku tidak sengaja membaca puisi yang dibuatnya di satu jejaring sosial yang isinya tentang seorang perempuan yang ia suka, bahkan di puisi itu terbesit niat bahwa ia ingin menikahi perempuan tersebut, tidak ku sangka sakit sekali hati ini ketika aku membacanya. Malamnya mata ini terus mengeluarkan air mata hingga aku tertidur karena lelah menangis. Mengapa? Mengapa jika hanya adik terhadap kakak, aku sampai menangis seperti itu? Apakah perasaan suka itu menjadi lebih dari rasa suka adik terhadap kakaknya?
Sekarang aku hanya bisa mengadu pada Sang Pemilik Hati kalau aku sedang merindukan ‘Kakak Semangat’. Ia adalah sebaik-baiknya tempat mengadu karena Dia pula yang memiliki skenario apa yang akan terjadi berikutnya. Sebentar lagi dia akan diwisuda. Lalu? Ya mungkin setelah itu dia akan meneruskan kegiatan dongengnya dan menikahi perempuan yang ia suka itu. Aku? Tentu saja aku harus kuliah dengan benar agar semester 7 aku sudah bisa menyelesaikan studiku dan diwisuda.

Can’t you see it? She likes you, more than you could imagine. It’s in her eyes, it’s in her voice, it’s in her smile. She’s so different when you’re around, so much happier. You’re the one for her, but you don’t see that, do you?
I wonder how much you knew about her. Did you know she was afraid of the dark? Or leech ? Did you know she hates thunder and lightning but loves rain on a spring night? Did you know she would do anything for her friends, and loves them with everything she has. I bet you didn’t know that everyone she has counted on has left her with one more shattered piece in her heart. I bet you didn’t know she can’t count her true friends because she has none. I have to wonder if you know that her hair is real, and it’s her favorite feature. I wonder if you knew she was insecure about her weight. I wonder if you knew she still thinks about you, and even though she will deny it every time, she still loves you more than life itself.

It isn't easy


Getting over someone is never easy. Sometimes you feel like you’ll never get over that person because you feel like that was your one. The perfect person for you. And even sometimes a takes another person to help you get over your last, I’m not saying run to the first person you meet and think he/she’s the one. It may be days, weeks, months or even years afterwards, but a new person can be a breath of fresh air. They help you see that you can move on and you can be happy with someone else. Just remember that is the end of an old chapter that is leading to the beautiful beginning of the next.

sometimes i wish


i still sometimes wish that you’ll show up….
just show up and say, “i miss you”
not as a lover, not as someone you loved, not as someone who cared for you, not as someone who will give everything for you, not even as someone who’s always there for you. 
i just sometimes wish that you’ll show up and just say ‘i miss you’
just so i know that you still remember.  i will be more than happy just to know that i still linger inside your mind.
so, yes. ill even settle even just to be a simple memory that you miss.
even just a simple memory. 

Getting over


I’ve decided that I’m going to forget this feelings for him. No, not in that way, it’s impossible to forget everything I feel about him in just one snap. I’ve decided that I’ll just go with the flow, I’ll stop over thinking things, especially things about him.
I’ve done the first step of moving on. Accepting and admitting it to yourself. I’ve finally come to admit that I like him. Also, I know that he doesn’t like me one bit, not in that way. Maybe that’s the reason why his “sweet” gestures don’t affect me much anymore. I finally opened my eyes to the truth, and it’s helping me a lot. Though, it still gets me when he talks to me about that girl he likes and when I see them fooling around, but I guess it’s just part of getting over him. There will come a time when I don’t feel anything for him anymore.
I can’t wait for that time.
