and you sent her a title of the song you wanted her to hear
saying it was saying about the feelings you have,
you wanted her to feel.

but, she heard it before.

you can't blame her
but she did

she had felt the world dance around the same beat
swayed through the waves of the sounds with the wind
when she was on her way to the beach
one hot summer day.

she had fell asleep on the same song
on a school night
having to wait to be validated.

she have cried on the same song when he left her

now, ask your self:

are the songs really for her?
Just a piece of advice. It has been a mainstream gesture between everyone to showoff our playlist to our significant others or even to those people we like. Yet, let's be mindful and be sensitive of the songs we sometimes send to them or dedicate to them as it will have an impact to their emotions and also their impressions to us (especially if you're still trying to impress them) If possible, try to sing yourself the songs you wanted them to listen so that they could feel the sincerity of emotions you wanted them to feel of you dedicating that song. Because little do we know, they have already heard the song, or they already have cried on it.

Sepertiga rasa
jatuh pada botol kecupan asa
mimpi berkelap-kelip berbias cahaya
kamu selalu indah, mengikat semesta.

Satu persatu melankolis tertawa
mengeja satu puisi
jatuhnya pun tiba-tiba
seperti cinta, mudah terisi.

Mengelukanmu seperti bidadari
menulis berbaris-baris puisi
tentang dirimu
hingga terhipnotis sampai lupa diri
kini rasa sendiri.. hinggap lagi
kembali menagih janji.

Ternyata rasa suka itu..
tidak pernah satu paket dengan kata "bersama"

Rasa pun akan mati nantinya
aku selalu penasaran
mengapa rona pelangi suka mempermainkan pikiran dan hati?
di ujung perjumpaan
oleh sebab ketiadaan ia menghilangkan jejak ini.

Sudah cukup perjumpaan ini?
aku kira kita masih bisa bersama untuk bermimpi


Mungkin sudah waktunya
aku kembali lagi
berangkat mencari sepotong daging yang terpisah dari jiwa
dan anggur-anggur memabukkan jati diri.
