  • Reflection

    Looking through the windows of time,Old questions suddenly resurface, Who were you then?What are you now? Are you still concealing your feeling?Afraid of what people might say? You told yourself to always get it together,Swallow every problem even if it’s bitter. You never fed your ego,Cause you thought your emotions,Didn’t deserve validations. But look at…

  • It wasn’t love at the beginning

    It wasn’t love at the beginning,I was just curious,Wanted to know more about you:What are you doing?What you’ve been up to?Are you thinking of me?Cause apparently,I’m thinking of you. It wasn’t love at the beginning,It was a curiosity,And because I’m curious,I called you first,Just to hang up three seconds later,Cause I didn’t want you to…

  • September Rain

    It was raining too that day. The morning when I decided to leave your city. Our conversation from the night before was still vivid. And my eyes were still swollen from too much tears. But that’s exactly the reason why I had to leave that next morning. When the rain just fell without reason. And…

    Have you ever pondered?The question of,How life can take an unexpected turn. The one that makes you question yourself,Your identity,Or the things you could probably be.

  • Kisah-kisah dalam lamunan

    Karena kabarmu, Aku berkhayal tentang pagi yang tak terburu-buru, Yang bisa dinikmati sambil menyesap kopi, Atau membolak-balik halaman buku. … Sudah lama memang, kuangankan siang yang memberi jeda, Atau petang yang leluasa. … Tapi malam pun, Tak lagi sempat memberi mimpi, Fajar bergegas datang, Enggan menunggu, barang sebentar. … Jogja, 28 April 2024 Hayu Hamemayu

  • Pillow Talk

    Kepada siapa aku harus bercerita? Tentang gelisah yang datang tanpa aba-aba. Tentang takut. Tentang kalut. Tentang kosong yang merangkul seperti kabut. … Aku toh tak bisa memaksakan percakapan. Jika hening adalah kata yang masih tertinggal. Biar saja kututup hari dengan segera, Karena malam ini, Sepi sungguh mendefinisikan kita. … Jogja, 26 April 2024 Hayu Hamemayu

  • Tentang Merapi, dan dua mangkuk es yang kita pesan sore itu

    Duduk menghadap Merapi, Sepasang manusia bercakap tentang teriknya hari. Yang satu mengeluh tentang hujan yang belum juga turun, Yang satu mengiyakan sebelum kemudian merenung: Apa yang masih bisa dibicarakan oleh dua manusia yg sudah saling mengenal selama 17 tahun?” Tapi, Ada yang tak biasa sore hari di bulan Oktober itu, Ada yang tak sama dari…

  • 5 Formula Drama Korea Bergenre Romantis

    Sebenarnya saya bukanlah #timseries, saya lebih cenderung ke #timfilm (tentang hal ini bisa didengarkan di sini). Serial yang berkepanjangan is not my cup of tea. Tapi belakangan sejak menggemari karya-karya BTS, saya tertarik juga untuk menonton K-Drama. Awalnya karena mendengarkan soundtrack serial televisi yang dinyanyikan oleh para anggota BTS, lalu karena tahu bahwa V merupakan…

  • Unchanged

    I thought it would be easy to forget you, But every time the dusk arrives, I gasp for air, As the memories of you run back through my veins. … I thought it would be easy to let you go, But every time the sky looks like this, That void inside me reappear, Torturing me…
