Growth

Never have I expected to outgrow you. Nor ever once the thought of you leaving would become a dream come true.

It was true, I loved you.

Or, just like my psychologist said, it was never you in the first place. Maybe, and I quote, "I just love the idea that I created about you."

I let you go, Boo. I let go of my selfishness, I let go of my anger, I let go of my unmeet desires. 

It was never been easy to move forward, not when you left me with such a deep wound. I finish my grievance. I chose peace within myself.

The idea of you would always fill the void inside me. The holes that were not there, yet now you left it empty. I was never incomplete, Boo. You did not complete me, I am complete, and always am. Yet trapped in a lengthy complicated cognitive dissonance.

I blame your apathy, your logical fallacies, and your egos. I was grossed with the reality that I never needed you. 

I thanked you a lot in the past, yet appreciation was never your choice. I would stop thanking you, my genuine heart has grown too precious for people like you now. 

I would choose to be happy too.

You are just part of me, but here, I give you credits.

You were my best friend, and only God knows what would happen next.

Till then, I appreciate your courage to leave me. 



A*sh0le.

Antidote of Happiness

I am sitting in my friend's fwb's living room, sitting on the sofa I will use as my bed tonight. This place has a big window that faces the ocean, right where his ship is floating. There he is, serving his country abroad, the great axis, the majestic military power of America. And here I am, sitting like an old rotten depressed apple, starting to get some mold. I do not even know what I am writing tbh, I just do. I just finished my crying session. I came a long way (3 hours, to be exact) to this city just for him to turn his airplane mode on, not wanting to see me. Pathetic, I know. But here I am writing, with overwhelming feelings; disappointment, regret, anger, shame, and brainlessness.  My parents called right when I was on the train, angry, because I have been ignoring them and the people that have helped me to be the person I am, meanwhile, here I am, pursuing people that do not even care about me. I do not even understand myself anymore, I hate myself, in fact. How could ...

Lakon

72 tahun.  Kemerdekaan telah disandangkan pada bumi pertiwi tepat pada tanggal 17 Agustus tahun 1945.  Putra putri bangsa telah berjuang dengan segenap kegigihan dan perjuangan yang tercatat oleh sejarah.  Pahlawan bumi putra telah banyak yang pulang dan gugur sebagai bunga bangsa, yang keharumannya abadi hingga nanti. Merdeka. Kian hari kian surut teriakan itu. Padahal, dalam perjuangan untuk mendapatkannya, banyak pemuda bangsa yang harus gugur dan berkorban jiwa raga. Banyak, bahkan anak cucunya kini tak dapat mengenalinya karena sibuk berkutat dengan amunisi-amunisi penjajah baru. Penjajah intelektual yang mengkikis semangat juang penerus bangsa. Tapi, tentu sejarah adalah sesuatu yang harus diingat dan diambil hikmahnya, bukan? Aku, Ita Nurjanah. Pemudi bangsa yang lahir di tanah Jakarta. Pahlawan pancasila dan agama. Kini, tugasku adalah memilih, mau jadi tokoh pergerakan kemerdekaan yang manakah dirku? Sulit. Namun, jika harus memilih, aku ing...
