A Pillow Way

She was looking for someone who can move her..
but he did more than that..
He has shaken her world upside down.
He makes every ordinary day unexpectedly complete.

She was the sweetest kind of chaos.
He lives with no excuses.
She loves with no regrets.
Everyday she makes the longest journey from her head to her heart.

The night was always too long without him and the day was too fast.
There is no moment she doesn’t ache for his scent
His presence gives her butterflies.
Just even thinking of his touch is like bliss en route to her spine.
Each moment is like a favorite song, everyday like a dance.

Somewhere there is a secret sky
Where they would actually touch.
One day out of darkness they shall meet
And read life’s meanings in their eyes.
They would just be a pillow away…

Taking a step without feet… in time…

Destination Calabria (Tujuan Tak Dikenal)

Sayang, ketika suaramu mengalun di telingaku adalah debar yang tak kutahu.
Entah darimana datangnya hingga aku tak sanggup menahan gemuruhnya, mengguncang seluruh persendianku, ototku dan jiwaku!

Seribu kata telah kusiapkan terbang entah kemana, tapi aku bahagia. Awal rasa bahagia untuk selamanya. Kasih sayang telah membuktikan dirinya, begitu hebatnya, begitu misterinya, begitu indahnya! Entah kenapa...

Sayang, apakah kau merasakan yang sama?

Destination calabria

(Videoclip: Alex Gaudino ft Crystal Waters)

Destination unknown (known known known known known)
(instrumental....)

I left my job, my boss, my car and my home,
I’m leaving for a destination I still don’t know
Somewhere nobody must have duties at all.
And if you like this you can follow me so let’s go,

Follow me and let’s go
To the place where we belong
And leave our troubles at home
Come with me we can go
To a paradise of love and joy,
A destination unknown.

Now I won’t feel those heavy shoulders nomore
my life got better now I finally enjoy
yes all the people wanna come here and so...?
come on and join us you can do that now let’s go

Follow me and let’s go
To the place where we belong
And leave our troubles at home
Come with me we can go
To a paradise of love and joy,
A destination unknown (known known known known unknown.)

Destination unknown.
(instrumental....)

Destination unknown (unknown)
Destination unknown

Follow me and let’s go
Destination unknown
(Repeat 2x)

Follow me and let’s go
To the place where we belong
And leave our troubles at home
Come with me we can go
To a paradise of love and joy,
A destination unknown.

Pelukmu dan pelukku

Kali ini aku kembali melamunkanmu. Entah yang keberapa kali, mungkin yang keseratus, keseribu, atau kesejuta kalinya. Matamu, senyummu, tawamu, suaramu melintas, berputar-putar, menari-nari di depanku. Kadang-kadang semua itu ikut berbaring di tempat tidurku sebab aku merasakannya. Merasakan engkaulah hangat itu, engkaulah yang membelai dengan mimpi indah itu, engkaulah yang memberi kecupan-kecupan lembut itu. Aku sadar dan menikmati semua itu.

Saat ini kita sama-sama berlari, sebab dengan sadar aku mendengar langkah-langkahmu itu. Langkahmu menujuku, dan apakah engkau mendengar langkah-langkahku kekasih? Aku yang berlari ke arahmu hingga nanti dua peluk itu akan menjadi satu. Pelukmu dan pelukku...

Jarak

Menghukum kita, sayang?

Salah apa kita terhadap waktu, terhadap jarak dan terhadap usia?Adakah kesalahan yang telah kita buat? Bukankah kita hanya ingin mencinta? Berbagi kisah bersama? Menguntai cerita? Kenapa kita yang harus dihukumnya? Kenapa?

Jarak ini memang jahat, teramat jahat.

Tapi sayang… bisakah jarak kita rubah menjadi bukan lagi sesuatu yang menyakitkan? Menjadi sesuatu yang membahagiakan. Kita kalahkan jarak, sayang. Biarkan dia menyakiti kita. Tapi kita bahagia atas itu semua. Bisakah kekasihku? Aku yakin engkau bisa. Dan aku yakin, engkau juga lebih bisa membawaku, membawa jarak ini pada sesuatu yang membahagiakan, bukan menyakitkan.

Aku akan menunggumu membawaku merubah jarak ini!!!

My Beloved Mother

This is dedicated to my wonderful mother, who left this world at the age of 76. It was more than 40 days ago this April. My mother was elegant and sophisticated, extremely fashionable, bright and beautiful with a sweet softness about her. She was very outgoing and had lots of friends. She loved the ocean and always dreamed of living in Indonesia with an ocean view. Her favorite hobbies were gardening, cooking and dancing. She was an amazing woman.

My mother was delighted to be such a grandmother! She loved taking her great-grandchildren to her home for visits and spoiled him with candies, toys, stuffed animals and clothes.

My life has never been the same without you. You made everything so special and so elaborate! I have inherited your ways of doing things like that... it makes me feel as if you are still with me.

I remember before I was going to Asia for a business trip, she said to me from her sickbed at the hospital …“John, every night make sure that you look up at the moon. No matter where you are or how far away you go, we will always be looking at that same moon… And I’ll be thinking of you”… That meant something very special to me. I will never forget you telling me that and still, every time I look up at the moon I think of you, and I wonder if you can see the moon where ever you are.

What a lovely person she was and how lucky I was to have had her in my life. I only wish I could have had her forever. She left this world far to soon. She had so much to offer. I know deep within me that I have a very special angel watching over me.

Those were wonderful memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life…

Resep Cinta

RESEP MASAKAN CINTA

Bahan:

1 pria sehat,

1 wanita sehat,

100% Komitmen,

2 pasang doa restu orang tua,

1 botol kasih sayang murni.

Bumbu:

1 balok besar humor,

25 gram rekreasi,

1 bungkus doa,

2 sendok teh telpon-telponan,

Semuanya diaduk hingga merata dan mengembang.

Tips:

Pilih pria dan wanita yang benar-benar matang dan seimbang.

- Jangan yang satu terlalu tua dan yang lainnya terlalu muda karena dapat mempengaruhi kelezatan.

- Jangan beli di pasar yang bernama DISKOTIK atau PARTY karena walaupun modelnya bagus dan harum baunya tapi kadang menipu konsumen atau kadang menggunakan zat pewarna yang bisa merusak kesehatan.

- Gunakan Kasih sayang cap “IMAN, HARAP & KASIH” yang telah mendapatkan penghargaan ISO dari Departemen Kesehatan dan Kerohanian.

Cara Memasak:

- Pria dan Wanita dicuci bersih, buang semua masa lalunya sehingga tersisa niat yang murni.

- Siapkan loyang yang telah diolesi dengan komitmen dan restu orang tua secara merata.

- Masukkan niat yang murni ke dalam loyang dan panggang dengan api cinta, merata sekitar 30 menit di depan penghulu atau pendeta.

- Biarkan di dalam loyang tadi dan sirami dengan semua bumbu di atas.

- Kue siap dinikmati.

Catatan:

Kue ini dapat dinikmati oleh pembuatnya seumur hidup dan paling enak dinikmati dalam keadaan kasih yang hangat. Tapi kalau sudah agak dingin, tambahkan lagi humor segar secukupnya, rekreasi sesuai selera, serta beberapa potong doa kemudian dihangatkan lagi di oven bermerek "Tempat Ibadah" diatas api cinta.

Setelah mulai hangat, jangan lupa telepon-teleponan bila berjauhan.

From Sarah With Love

She’s fragile, she’s hurt, she’s already got enough painful memories
Don’t use her, don’t leave her with all those painful memories
Don’t tell her you love her when really you don’t even want her
Don’t tell her you love her unless you’re gonna stay around even when the going gets tough

So maybe the chance for romance is like a train to catch before it’s gone and I’ll keep on waiting and dreaming you’re strong enough to understand as long as you’re so far away I’m sending a letter each day... From Sarah With Love

>From Sarah With Love
(Sung by Sarah Connor)

[Verse 1:]

For so many years we were friends

And yes I always knew what we could do

But so many tears in the rain

Felt the night you said

That love had come to you

I thought you were not my kind

I thought that I could never feel for you

The passion and love you were feeling

And so you left
For someone new

And now that you’re far and away
I’m sending a letter today

[Chorus:]

From Sarah with love

She’d got the lover she is dreaming of

She never found the words to say

But I know that today

She’s gonna send her letter to you

From Sarah with love

She took your picture to the stars above

And they told her it is true

She could dare to fall in love with you

So don’t make her blue when she writes to you

From Sarah with love

[Verse 2:]

So maybe the chance for romance

Is like a train to catch before it’s gone

And I’ll keep on waiting and dreaming

You’re strong enough

To understand

As long as you’re so far away

I’m sending a letter each day

[Chorus]

[Last chorus:]

From Sarah with love

She’d got the lover she is dreaming of

She never found the words to say

But I know that today

She’s gonna send her letter to you

From Sarah with love

She’s gotta know what you are thinking of

’Cause every little now and then

And again and again

I know her heart cries out for you

From Sarah with love

She’d got the lover she is dreaming of

Never found the words to say, ahh

But today, but today...

From Sarah with love

She took your picture to the stars above

And they told her it is true

She could dare to fall in love with you

So don’t make her blue when she writes to you

From Sarah with love

[Coda:]

So don’t make me blue when I write to you

From Sarah with love...

Pelangi

Sore hari, disebuah jalanan yang padat, hujan turun rintik. Sementara matahari sore masih bersinar terang. Di saat-saat seperti ini, alam menghadiahkan pemandangan yang indah untuk kita? Saat butir-butir air membiaskan spektrum-spektrum cahaya, merangkai membentuk lengkungan warna-warni alam.

Pelangi? Dimanakah kau pelangi? Ingin aku melihat pelangi lagi setelah entah kapan terakhir menyaksikannya. Seharusnya ia ada di sebelah kiri jalan ini, karena matahari ada di kanan. Namun dimanakah kau bersembunyi?

Ah, pelangi. Kuingin melihat pelangi...

Matahari mulai menghilang. Aku masih berada dijalanan yang sama, dengan kemacetan yang sama…


Berbicara tentang pelangi, kuingat kata-kata seseorang:
“Buatkan aku dua lukisan cat air. Satu lukisan warna-warni pelangi. Satu lagi lukisan kusamnya campuran seluruh warna. Akan kupajang keduanya berdampingan. Ini untuk selalu mengingatkanku bahwa hidup bagaikan warna-warni sekotak cat air. Kita yang menentukan bagaimana lukisan dari warna-warni itu. Kalau kita menata warna-warni tersebut dengan baik, akan tercipta indahnya pelangi. Kalau kita mengkacaukannya, mencampur-adukkan semua, yang ada hanyalah warna suram kecoklatan.”
