Termination

If you kill, kill well.
If you slaughter, slaughter well.

Hopeful

When you believe in one thing,believe in it fully as if life depends on it.

There is no worth of bobbing around trying to secure a view of the "others". Immerse yourself completely in that belief, be it a dream, or a spark of hope.

Get drenched until the wetness feels dry.

Get soaked.

Love Only Aplifies, Only Love Amplifies

When we feel happy, it is because we allow happiness to fill us. It is not another person or things or events that make us happy, but what we perceive from it.

When we feel hurt, it is because we choose to run the water over our already-present open wounds. It is not you or them or the water, but what we decide to do out of free will.

When we feel Love, it amplifies both and everything else.

To Let Go of Sorrow

It is not in the present that your sorrow exists.
Sorrow is carried from the past, all the way to where you are now.
And it is the same sorrow that tries to slow you down or worse, shields you off from embracing happiness in the present.

Upon understanding this, you have come to a diverted path.
This is where you must decide.

The different paths might lead to the same end but this is where you must decide.

There Can Be No 'Otherwise'

When Leia expressed to Solo
That she loved him;
He said, "I know."

Well.

Only God Knows Why He Made Us Like This

It is in our (sad but true) nature that we are never satisfied with our present circumstance and condition.

Example 1: Size
A: "Besar sangat lah rumah ni, penat gila nak kemas".
B: "Kalau rumah kita besar sikit, boleh lah jemput ramai orang masa kenduri nanti".

Example 2: Amount
A: "Gaji 10 ribu, tapi hati tak tenang". *sigh*
B: "Shit. Claim tak masuk. Makan maggi".

Example 3: Weather
A: "Urgh it's too hot here. I can't imagine how you can stand it day and night. I hate the sweating".
B: "Why is it always raining? Macam mana nak jog? Macam mana nak kurus..." (okay " nak kurus" dah masuk topic lain.)

Example 4: Work
A: "Takda manual ke? Takkan nak belasah je?"
B: "You expect me to read this?"

Jadi, Iylia Elena and whoever reading, let us take a step back and fully observe the circumstance and condition that we are in at the moment. Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.

Kalau nak diikutkan rasa kurang, sampai mati pun akan rasa kurang. Letaklah kekurangan itu untuk perkara yang betul, dan penuhkanlah bekas itu dengan ikhlas dan bersungguh-sungguh. Sampai mati pun akan rasa kurang (i.e. "Ish taknak mati kat hospital, nak mati kat rumah."). Kejar dan kumpul untuk yang boleh tahan sampai lepas mati dan hidup balik.

We were born as human beings. Jangan ingat kucing dan arnab hidup senang. Selalu minta yang "bukan" dan yang bukan-bukan.

Hehe.

I have a shirt that says, "I wish I was a frog".

We Accept The Love We Think We Deserve

You rendered me speechless with that beautiful smile. How could I even attempt to fill the air; when I knew that emotions are beyond languages?

*

When you love a person,
it is not because they are special.
It is because you are special.

*

On that night when everything was a blur,
It was as if all else were hiding behind clouds,
And I could only see you.

"Why are you sitting so far away?
Come here and sit next to me.
I want to talk to you.
I will listen to all that you have to say."

*

"'Ya Habibi' means 'Oh my Love'", you said.

*

This is my little secret:
On that night, I made a decision too.

Weak Limited Reasonings Lose Against His Will All The Time

Oh look, just look!
Look at what we've done now!

Oh Dear One won't you just look,
Look at yourself,
And pray, look at me!

Now state; did you possess any strength?
Now admit; did you own any will?

This mind holds
But weak
Limited reasonings
That has been loaned
Until His Will
Overtakes.

All together now!

We're off to see the wizard
The wonderful Wizard of Oz
We hear he is a whiz of a wiz
If ever a wiz there was!

If ever, oh ever, a wiz there was
The Wizard of Oz is one because
Because, because, because, because, because
Because of the wonderful things he does!

We're off to see the wizard
The wonderful Wizard of Oz!

*

I miss you too. :)

Dondang Sayang

Anak peladang pergi ke surau
Memakai baju butangnya tiga

Anak peladang pergi ke surau
Ribut dan taufan tidak ku hirau

Dondang sayang
Pulau harapan, harapan
Ku cita juga

Ribut dan taufan tidak ku hirau
Dondang sayang
Pulau harapan, harapan
Ku cita juga

Cry

Ease this yearning,
Wash away this longing.

Please.

Jangan (Terlalu) Menghampiri Aku

Jangan terlalu menghampiri aku
Aku hanya seorang penulis-
Bukan, aku hanya seorang
Yang sering cuba menulis

Jangan kamu percakayan kata-kata ku
Kata kata ini tidak membezakan
Yang benar dan sebaliknya
Cuma bahasa ciptaan manusia
Yang tersimpul bersama

Akhir nanti
Kamu
Aku
Akan pulang ke Sana
Di mana tersimpan rahsia-Nya
Mungkin nanti
Kita akan berjumpa

Not You

I was full of you
When I heard the sound again.
And again.
And again.
But none of it was you. 

:(

If it has been decided
That you would reside
Only within, only inside
Then so be it
It will be alright.

:)

Untitled #2

"Where are you going
With that beautiful face
Looking down?

Don't hide away
You are like an ocean
That I can't see but I can smell
And the sound of the waves
Coming down

I am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero

But I do know one thing:
Where you are
Is where I belong

I do know
Where you go
Is where I want to be"

-Dave Matthews Band

*

A shape of yourself has been carved out from my soul
As I stood by watching you
Writing down neatly
Your name
On my heart
As permanent black ink on white paper
Striking
Ever-lasting

Untitled #1

Telah ku sebarkan
hingga ke bucu empat penjuru
Rasa ini bukan milik-ku
Andainya kamu sudi
Nah, ambil-lah, ambil semuanya
Akan lebih baik untuk-ku

Berdiri di dalam gua
Bernyanyi, tapi tidak sekali bergema
Kerut dan senyuman tidak kenal beza
Yang ada
Cuma hati dan jiwa

Seperti ditemani pekat malam
Mengenali rahsia yang terdalam
Hingga ditegur dengan ucap salam

Angin membawa suara
Dan terdengar aku sebuah pertanyaan:
"Apakah ubat untuk hati manusia
Yang mencintai sesama ciptaan?"

Promises

Make them whole-heartedly,
Yet make them sparingly.

They are never made to be broken.
They are made,
Only to be kept
Only to be fulfilled.

In shaa Allah.
