The Way to Unlove You
Desember 17, 2023 3 Comments

Dear, the one who is separated by more than eight million light time. 

Which is no one of human being can live at that long time.

Dear someone whose name remains secret. 


I've been trying to find a new way. In my long research, I want to tell you that, finally 

I have a secret recipes for the the way to unlove you.

They say that is to not curious with what you're up to,

Is not to reach you, 

Is not to think of you. 


But, we both know that distance is our friend. 

We have befriend with distance since our first encounter. 

I for this is too fluent whenever I crave to meet you. 

For I am too fluent to imagine if I can flip the distance. 


I for all the past time, can't predict how you will be able to get through my heart. 

You touch my stone hard. 

You did that. 

With distance too,  it'll be easier to unlove you. 



I'm sorry, I like you, I'm sorry, I think I will use distance to forget you. 

I will not reaching you. 

I will not bothering you. 

I will keep silence. 

I will buried up my wanting to meet you. 

Until the time, distance can help me to unlove you. 


If the day come, I'll come to you

Then, would you be my friend again? 

Will it ever be the same again and how we both have the joy of a conversation?

Shall We Be Friend Again?
Desember 03, 20230 Comments

The cheerful person who will accept my sincere thanks is you.
You're one of people that deserves that. 
You're one of my best friend. 


I always have no other intentions when looking for platonic relationship. 
It didn't like I want have some benefit from certain people. 
I want to connect with various friends from various backgrounds so that I get to know wider knowledge.
And.. hoping that I can be one of the supporter of their life. 


I also am very open about friendships.

Because the connection I crave is not depend on shallow things. 
Even though only small amounts of friends, hoping that the universe can let me to meet with friends who we will get to know to each other, sincerely. 


I'm very grateful I found such a wonderful friend like you. 
Since then, the encounter make me cheering up for the moment I met you, in our jovial encounter. 

Such thing is the prove that you're so precious. 
It's like that a new best friend has entered my new life, even though with our distances. 

Until then, 
好きです
I didn't realize that I can fall in love with you.
Why should I?  
Despite several differences, why? 

It's hard for me to get away from this feelings. 
I have no idea where it's started. 
I have no idea how impossible it's but... I did fall for you. 


Oh you know how I miss you when you're not around. 
You know my flaws, my hard life, and my bad jokes (but you're still laughing anyway). 

Oh you, 
I wish I knew how to prevent my feelings.. 
Oh let me know how to unlove you... 


The hardest part of acceptance is to let you go. 
I still want to be your forever best friends for good. 
I don't want to lose you.


Shall we be friend again ? 
but I promise that this time I'm not going to fall in love with you...

November Without You
November 25, 2023 2 Comments

 君のいない11月

Photo by M


November without you just like a year without autumn.  Could've been this becoming a right moment to forget you..... eventually ? 


 君のいない11月— November without you


What are you doing now? 

Are you eating well? 

Does your new work treat you well? 


This silence November without your talk feels so empty. It feels like a year without autumn, where the beauty of changing colors fades away unnoticed. The usual warm from our exchange thoughts has given away to a sudden chill— just like a summer suddenly changes into a cold winter. 


This whole month is pretty tough for me, wondering the moments we're not sharing, and each unwritten messages becomes a fallen leaf, a reminder of the conversations suspended in the air. 


I'm still falling out of love with you... 

After all this time, I'm still feeling this kind of love. And I know that this is just my imagination.

Just an imaginative thought which ensures me that probably, you just could be with me. 


I couldn't bear to wait even just an hour to talk to you, 

but this time is among the longest time I didn't hear anything from you. 


Finally, was  our last conversation marked as a goodbye. 'though I couldn't call that as a goodbye. As I only remembered about your wishes, my wishes too. 


Dear you, is it really real?

 

But then, I realized, 

With our distances, just like me as person of the earth and you're the star,

With our gaps, just like me as the moon and you're the sun,

With our differences, 

With our circumstances. 


I don't have any idea what are you doing right now. 

I believe you're in the safest place. 

I want you to drink your nice warm tea when the weather is cold. 

I want you to be the 'only one' at your work. 

I want you to be loved. 


Such are the things, when the colors seems fade away.... in nothingness. 

In your absence, I can't barely ready to face to coldness of this world. 


Without you,

I'm nothing.

I'm Still
November 15, 20230 Comments


『寂しくなるね』

Currently I'm learning a new phrase. Well, I'm not really good at it but this I think already describes my current feelings. 

  • 寂しい:lonely
  • くなるね:it's going to be
  • 寂しくなるね:I'll miss you

It's likely that I'll feeling so lonely if you're not here, if we're not talking to each other, that's why I'll miss you is the best word to say that. 



By means all the shake I've felt before

I thought that would be slowly faded away

As I thought that was the last time we talked without goodbye 

Lasting remarkable story  what I called love


'tough this kind of love is what it's said unreciprocated 

For I 

Fallen too profound

In the one sided feelings


That I'm the deep down still craving memories

That I can't lies


I'm still writing letters for you,

In which it's being redirected within the time when we could arrange a viewing at least

By this unsent letters 

I could say what I want to say, 

Every letters looks like calligraphy, don't you think so?

These are all unsent letters also a sign 

I'm still falling out of love with you


As for now, we have came to the point where a distance which must be covered for millions of light years.

I know

You must be knowing more than me

It's a distance that cannot be covered in our lifetime as humans. 

"It is not the sun catch up with the moon, nor does the night outrun the day. Each is traveling in an orbit of their own." 36:40.

Even in the same galaxy but separated in their own orbit of light.


But I'm still hoping you'll write to me,

I'm still hoping you'll have a feelings for me...

Is it too much?

It's ok to not feeling ok, it's ok to have a pause, it's ok to let go, it's ok to move on, it's ok to feel sad, it's ok to try little bit harder.....

Looking back, I think we're all living a life where we transition from one "it's ok" to another "it's ok". 


It's ok to not feeling ok. 

It's ok to feel broke for awhile. Mostly hardship are coming towards our way. It doesn't matter what day it is, it can be happening at any day. It's  a normal feeling to be sad. However, we gotta clue, 'that every hardship comes ease'. 


It's ok to have a pause. 

Sometimes life seems like a race, but don't be consumed by this. Why rushing? It's ok to be where you are now. It's a feeling where we feel can't reach specific milestone. With a pause, we can get recharged and be ready for the next journeys.


It's ok to let go. 

We can give our best efforts for something. However, it seems that we can't force to have everything we wish, we can't force someone to stay, we need to let go.


It's ok to move on. 

Don't let the past hinder our progress. It's the time to move on, to welcome new experiences. 


It's ok to feel sad. 

It's ok, just try a little bit harder day by day. We're a human with all of these weaknesses, we're human who can't foresee the future, 

How if we already know that we can't fail, don't this make us too reckless? 


 大丈夫だよ~✨

Hi October
Oktober 09, 20230 Comments
Hi October!

Do you got a hint about what's coming next? 

Here I'll give you hint that, everything you've been praying for is drawing closer to you


I've  been learning to appreciate my ordinary life, just as I value my personal growth. In which, I'm fully aware that the beginning and the progress I've made are still far from what society considers 'the standard'. 

At this moment, I suppose I can learn and take the time to reflect on the art of waiting and the importance of embracing my own unique journey

Autumn in Korea🍁 photo by Q. 


Much like the October in four— season's country, it signifies autumn. 
We can watch that leaves fall gently to the ground to prepare for the next season. 
They're turning into brown-red colors.
They're beautiful. 
This teaches me that waiting isn't merely a passive act; it's a season of growth
Me too, we too, are shaped by it.
Although we may not always  notice the changes taking place, but they're happening. 
They're shaping us into something beautiful and resilient. 

waiting isn't merely a passive act; it's a season of growth. 


I'm recalling the moments when I felt depressed and overwhelmed by the uncertainty and despair, I now understand that those challenges I faced were molding me. 
It reminds me once again that the universe has its own timing. 
The time is often more perfect than we could have imagined. 


For all the challenges and dreams that once consumed me, I longed to have them all together. However, I've slowly come to realize that sometimes I need to let go of the needs for everything to align perfectly. 
I believe that Allah's plan is beyond our comprehension


I've found contentment in understanding that the waiting period itself is a blessing.

Sa(i)dーtember : I'll Walk on My Own Pace
September 30, 20230 Comments

Do we live on a race? 

Are we truly living, or are we merely racing through it?


This September was the moment of quiet reflection within my own thought. 

It's sad but well said. This is a bittersweet realization because I was on a battle within my self, actually... 


There's a moment when I was feeling sad,  but then September whispered its wisdom. It reminded me that it's okay to have a pause. 

It taught me to embrace the nature of my self, so that I've decided that I will dancing to my own tune and just being me. 


Well, it's true that life seems like a race. Life can sometime expect us to follow the crowd. 

We're often told to do things in certain ways, to achieve certain milestones by specific ages, to fit in particular boxes, and march to someone's else beat. 


But,  I'm trying to let my self in a ''POMO'' (Pleasure of Missing Out) mode. 

Well, not saying that I'll leave all the social media off nor disappearing into a solitary place. It's just everything in between, about finding a balance as I'll not let my life be consumed by the fear of missing out.  

 So, I've decided that

自分をペースで歩んでいきたい I will walk with my own pace.
 



The lesson I've learnt from people I admire is, they stay true to themselves.

 
Living authentically will lead me to hear the rhythm of my own's heart. 

In this kind of meaning, I'll try to recognize what I love, what I dream of, and where I want to go, and then just going for it. 


It's okay to be where I am now
For nothing is truly too late nor too early. 


It's not about being perfect, but it's about enjoying the dance while I'm dancing on my own tune. 

It's a journey of self-discovery, one step at a time.

In the Tug of Heartstrings
September 23, 20230 Comments

ねえ、ねえ、

I just want you to know that it's really hard not to talk to you when I want to,

... And It's equally difficult to not have the opportunity to see you when I truly need to,

... As well as not being with you when I long for you,


But you know, the hardest part is trying not to love you, 

When I already do.... 




By the way, いま何してんの?

Hahaha it's funny, eh? (笑)


I want to (try to) embrace my feelings towards you, 

and of course I have to realize,

that energy is never broken, just transferred into another form. 


I give my love energy to you, 

and I believe that,

someday I'll have and receive the same kind of energy,

even if it's not from you,

perhaps with better form, 

In a good time, 

with happiness, 

I will find my joy and I live in a peaceful life.


Honestly,

I long for a happy ending, 

with you,

but who knows that the actual happy ending for me is, 

even if our destiny couldn't meet, 

the happy ending probably knowing that I survived countless heartbreaks, unrequited loves, 

and I don't lose ability to love. 


And after every breaking, 

I wish I could realize that destiny has a different opinion, 

which doesn't resemble our dreams. 


ねえ、ねえ、あなたに会いたくて。

Expecting the Unexpected
September 10, 20230 Comments
Have you ever considered what lies ahead for us? 

It's a fact that we don't have the ability to foresee the upcoming days, weeks, months, years... Or even the next few seconds. 
We find ourselves in the mids of uncertainty, out of nowhere—as the foresight about what will going on remains unseen. It is the life that can possibly give us its twists and turns.


Should we be fearful of the future? 

Well, I can fully understand that fear may come. We feel so much worried about what will going to be happened, with every "what ifs" which populate in our thoughts. It's perfectly natural to have this feeling in the face of indefinite. 
Fear can trigger worry or anxiety, but it has a purpose. This fear can help our body to release stress hormones, in which it helps to give our self an 'alarm' to have some anticipations. 







Overthinking not, preparing yes. 

It's not about overthinking; it's about readiness. 
Once our body have undergone this stress response, it give us pressure about the thing that may not be well for us, we then can engage in logical planning. 
This is where experience and emotional intelligence come into play, together can make the best results. With sufficient preparation, we tend to worry less. 


I don't say it may going to work out 100 percent. 

We can't expect anything to go perfectly as we wish. 
Life, as I mentioned earlier, is filled with twists and turns.
Expecting the unexpected make us have enough worry about the future—not overthinking nor letting it flow.
The key is not to be consumed by worry but to make space for Unpredictability. 
Let's embrace the flow as sometimes our plans won't work as expected, it might changes, but it's perfectly fine! 


In conclusion

We can create room for the currents of change. 
We can have better knowledge that flexibility and adaptability are essential attributes on our journey through the unknown.

August Epiphany
September 05, 20230 Comments

It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily life. It made us tend to do a routine without realizing what actually we're doing. 

Sometimes we're forced to drive back, to reassure things, like I once said to myself that it's extremely important to have better understanding on what I do. 

Thankfully this August offered a reprieve, a pause button that allowed me to delve deeper into my spirituality and reconnect with the essence of my faith. 

I'm trying to resemble how this month made me feel closer to God, not for any other intention, just as a sequence of my self-compassion. So that I learned the beauty of acceptance, and ignited a fresh spark of hope for the road ahead. 


···· Epiphany ····

noun. a moment when you suddenly feel that you understand, or suddenly become conscious of, something that is very important to you.

Sayonara
Agustus 31, 20230 Comments

Sayonara...  さよなら

I'm taking a step to say a farewell, eventually


I'm certain now that I'll soon forget about you.. 

At first, I believed that releasing the grip of the moments we shared would be an uphill battle. 

(Of course it did, as they deeply influenced the way I felt about you). 


This belief was rooted in the notion that, I thought I had a place of myself inside you

What I didn't realize was that I was just another face in the crowd of friends you held, and our conversations, though meaningful, held only fleeting presence.


How foolish of me to tightly grasp onto all the small details you shared with me. 

In fact, it remains unreciprocated... Once again...

You've never remembered about me, or something I did to you. 



If you were to ask me, "How are you?" 

Here I am, in the midst of a struggle. 


Now, I have realized, eventually....

That's it's one sided feelings of me


As I embark on a journey through the fragments of memories that time is slowly erasing.


In a world where you and I were strangers, these recollections, now fading, carry whispers of emotions and stories that I'll soon forget.

Walk beside me through the corridors of reminiscence as I whole : 

A Farewell to Forgotten  

to moments that once held significance but now linger as distant echoes.


It's gradually taking root within me—the realization that the act of forgetting is not an abrupt severing of ties, but a gradual loosening of bonds.


These memories, while once tightly wound around my heart, are gently unraveling as I come to understand that I can't hold onto what was never truly mine to begin with. 


Goodbye, dear... 

I'm making space for new experiences, new connections, and ultimately, new growth. 

Well, yea It's a long and winding journey, but I'm stepping forward with the belief that as these echoes fade, I'm paving the way for a new harmony to emerge in the symphony of my life.

I Love You From Afar, and It's Hurt
Agustus 28, 20230 Comments

A year has danced by since our paths first intertwined, yet the space between us remains far.

As time has gone by, I've found myself eager to share various aspects of my life with you. 

You've always been such a great listener, showing eagerness to engage with my narratives. 

Your enjoyment in hearing my tales and even laughing at my weirdest jokes has been source of comfort. 

Yet, my feelings for you remain distant, like an unrequited affection. 


Yet, my feelings for you remain distant, like an unrequited affection. 


Amid these enjoyable interactions, there's a shared sense of contentment in our connection.




But the truth is clear—there's a significant barrier between us—making a closer bond difficult. 

Oh, still, here I am from a distance, unable to bridge the gap that separates us. 

Such is the nature of our situation—it is what it is. 

The complexities of our situation aren't lost on us; coming together is far from straightforward.


You, with your mysterious nature, 

Intrigue me, 

while I navigate my own challenges and sorrows, embracing my melancholic state. 

Not knowing much about you only widens the gap that's always been there.


I will continue to admire you from afar, no matter how deep my feelings, and permit those emotions to slowly fade away.

Although,

いってえIt's hurt! 


Despite this, 

I'm sending my best wishes for your happiness through my prayers. 

It's the one thing I can do to positively impact your life.

Dried Flowers
Agustus 15, 20230 Comments
I hold onto cherished memories of you, 
I wonder, 
Will they fade away? 

I romanticize every moment we have. 
I always do. 

From our whimsical conversation of becoming superheroes, 
to the laughter we shared over the eccentricities of others' thoughts. 

About our diverse backgrounds yet some of our tastes aligned,

how you wait,
how I wait longer,

how I write and talk longer than you,
Even unto the difficult topics that I haven't talk with someone else. 
Somehow I feel safe.  




I just drowned in my own fantasies.

I think it's true, 
perhaps this tear are mine to bear,
for I've fallen too deeply, 
too profoundly. 


It's the pure feelings, which I have for you, 

You were aware of it, or so I wish... 



I barely remember how we could be close enough, 
but only as almost a lover, 
yet they say, "almost is never enough."


This might be the end of the last memories I had about you. 

Just like the colors of dried flowers, 

...... Will eventually they fade away?

Intentions and Choices
Agustus 13, 20230 Comments

If it doesn't arise from personal desire, it's somewhat difficult to occur...

Or if it does happen, the outcome will be different...


Have you ever noticed that often, no matter how many times we try something, if we lack the intention, it becomes difficult to accomplish?

Uhmmm well.. That's absolutely true. Especially when it's related to emotions.


Could be any emotion... 

Can we be demanded to like something?

To forget someone a.k.a moving on?

To let go of your dreams?

Well... what else, huh...


If we're being forced, It's merely hard.... 


《Force : make (someone) do something against their will



'"Just do whatever you want to do" (from a clip of a movie... sorry, I forgot the title, hehe).


Another example, for instance, is when we advise someone in various ways, even sometimes resorting to forcing them. 

It's because we feel like we know what's best for that person

Like parents advising their children; or older siblings advising younger ones; forcing you partner to be like ideal partner; and so on. 

Consequently, if someone feels coerced, they won't fully comply. It's not uncommon for people to become defiant when they feel their desires aren't being met and are instead forced to do things they dislike.


I learned to not force anything: conversations, friendships, relationships, attention, love. Anything forced is just not worth fighting for, whatever flows flows, what crashes crashes.

Well, that's probably it. Because there are times when we also feel that way, understanding how others should be, but at the same time not wanting to be dictated to...


However, indeed, sometimes circumstances force us to let go.


By the way... often, real-life examples are the most effective advice... rather than mere words.

Us and Distance
Agustus 06, 20230 Comments

I told God that I'm grateful you came to my life. 


In prayers, I believe there's a ton of love that I can't explain. 


I experienced a fleeting feeling yet a profound emotion, considering how the world support our way to come across. 


I resembled the letters that once connect us for our friendship, despite the distance.


I was wonderstruck, yet enjoyed the fluttering and those warm feeling. 


You might not realize how your stories, supports and mere existence brighten my days. 






I told you once again, 

It's nice talking to you. 

How enjoyable our conversations are. 


It's a great thing that our minds can connect from far, far away.... 


It's amazing how effortlessly we find topics to discuss and you provide me with exactly what I need to read. 


It's remarkable how we could understand each other tone without the knowledge of each other gesture. 


But the distance is unbearable.... 


I can't seem to catch you. 


And this is the kind of love I have for you. 


Believe me, until now, I have adored you.


I found myself momentarily lost in a notion, that I had been in love with fantasies I had created in my head. 


I am well aware that we are just perfect strangers who met. 


I understand that I'm not physically beside you, whether standing, sitting, or lying down. 


I wish you were here. 

Or I wish I was there. 

Even if it was just for today. For a few seconds. 

So that I could softly whisper, 'I love you'. 


I wish someday we share long walks, gazing into each other's eyes. 


Ouch, I think I fell in love with a distant star...
