Salam perpisahan

Semua kenangan indah tentangmu yang terbingkai dalam jiwaku,
Kini akan kulemparkan ke dalam sungai yang begitu dingin ini.
Biar dia membunuh asaku, menyirnakan kehangatan yang sejenak pernah kauberikan,
Membekukan semua luka yang timbul karenanya.
Sehingga segala kesedihanku akan sirna,
Segala kenangan tentangmu akan membeku,
menjadi batu, hanyut dibawa arus.


Ini hampir setahun sejak percakapan kita di gerai kopi larut malam itu. Pikiran jernih yang saling kita ungkapkan malam itu ternyata tak cukup memberikan kekuatan kepada saya untuk tidak mematahkan hati saya sendiri. Setahun berlalu, cinta saya belum terhapus, bahkan bertumbuh. Saya masih menunggu, berharap bahwa waktu dan cinta akan memihak kepada saya. Mungkin sekarang waktunya untuk melupakanmu, setelah setahun penantian yang sia-sia dan menyiksa.

No more parties, no more lunch or dinner with friends, no more invitation for birthday parties, no more traveling. Perhaps my life had become too easy before the pandemic. We had to switch Nathaniel from a brick and mortar school to a cyber school. I tried to plan my grocery trips ahead of time to avoid crowds. We had to wear masks everywhere. But at least we are healthy. At least I am facing this together with my husband and kids as a family. At least I am at home that is fu...
All of a sudden my thoughts fly to my old friends tonight. How are they all doing? I miss the good old days. I am here, content and happy, but somehow I still miss them. People come and go in your life, but true friends remain in the heart, no matter where they are now, right :) ?
