No need
I don’t need another pair of shoesI don’t need another pair of sandalsI don’t need another advocacy t-shirtsBut I want them and people give them to me I don’t need another clear foldersI don’t need another pensI don’t need another tumblersBut they are keep coming at me I don’t need another bagsI don’t need another cell phonesI don’t need another yoga matsBut I want them And they are very cheap I don’t need another plushiesI don’t need another stickersI don’t need another earingsBut they are so cute Irresistible to not buy I don’t need another lipstickI don’t need another skincare productsI don’t need another powderBut I want to look insanely…

your story
You don’t need to compare your life to mineIt will be painful to try to match to somethingThat you don’t have any control of We all have our own “achievements”Maybe the term is too big; it’s scaryYou can call it “pleasant things” It can be a moment where you don’tTry too hardAware too muchAlert too highAfraid to askFeel too anxiousHurt so deep You don’t need to be anyone you wish forBecause you may not like your past versionWho made the wish Human is not fairHumanity may be rarePeople’s expectation is absurd It is not a shame to surviveWe may never pass that phase Never compare your story to othersWe build…

a bit scary
It’s a bit scaryWhen you have so much to sayBut unable to voice themUnsure about the language to useAfraid about the risks It’s a bit scaryTo be brave with many privilegesTo be poor with less options How powerless we should be?How traumatized we should be?How much intersectionalities should we bear?Like, how do you count them?How do we taking care of injustice? It’s a bit scaryTo be pessimist with many enemiesSometimes they are your families It’s a bit too muchTo love and care for yourself We don’t know how and why It’s painful to tell storiesAnd tell yourself that it’s okayTo be this low and highTo be vulnerable and breakableAnd hear…

Tambahan lagu di playlist
Tadi pagi aku bertanya ke diri sendiri, “Buat apa sih kamu menulis lagu playlist di blog?” Salah satu alasan adalah karena sejak aku bukan lagi terdaftar sebagai mahasiswa, aku mencari langganan Spoty yang lebih terjangkau di Shopee. Sempat mengambil langganan yang harganya 6 ribu/bulan, tetapi harus pakai akun baru, tidak bisa menggunakan akun punyaku sendiri. Alhasil bikin playlist baru. Ketika aku perpanjang akun itu, aku dibuatkan lagi akun baru. Lah, gak bagus ini. Akhirnya aku beli di tempat lain menggunakan akun Spoty pertama. Aku coba-coba. Harganya 25 ribu/3 bulan. Setelah aku cek, hasilnya bagus dan senangnya tidak perlu bikin playlist dari awal. Aku tinggal menambahkan lagu-lagu yang baru aku temukan…

Disposable
We were both babies when I fall for youYour dimple and doe eyesSteal my glances They said don’t act too gayBe a manly boy on stageSo I hold my feeling for you Baby let’s go to our hideout at the parkWhere we kiss in the darkThis love is full of fear but I will not apologizeWonder how long we can live this way I’ll be your fairy and you’ll be my Peter PanThis is not everyone fairy taleWhere we live happily ever afterBecause we will fight till the end But I get tired of feeling shameWho I am is not a sinI am not a disposable mistake Baby hold my…

Sweetest tea
Someone out thereFeels better because of youSomeone also missing you like crazy That someone needs you as the guiding lightYou are the shine for someone’s bleak daysYou are the reason for someone’s happiness Someone is lost without youYou are the smile on someone’s lipsSometimes you don’t know itBecause you take yourself lightly You are the best someone’s could ever hadYour smile is the sweetest teaI wish you knew Bogor, Februari 2021

A story to tell
I’ll tell you a storyAbout a boy helplessly in love Hold your opinionDon’t put stamp on my faceIf this feeling is wrongHow can it last this long? If you’re a faultThen why am I feeling so right?Is it real or are we just friend?Or are we stray from the start? I’ll tell you a storyThat nobody wants to hearAnd I can’t say it too loudBecause it’s about loving myself They said it’s a choiceI can be normal butI already feel so naturalWhen I lay in your arms Bogor, 2020

Be my safe space
Heal at your paceI will be your safe spaceI don’t want to drag you to my painBecause you bring me nothing but smile I can’t leave you aloneI’ve cut my vein to stop the painLoving you is a wonderful solution You will be betterYou will get strongerYou will be my butter I love everybroken pieces of yoursLet’s make them intoBeautiful collageIt may take long timeI may be broken again One step at a timeYou will find the wayYou are made to be a fighterAnd hold the dawnOn your palm Niken LestariBogor, 2020

A song from the past – Yang Kumau
Kali ini aku mau mengenang lagu lama yang pernah menemaniku berjudul Yang Kumau dan dibawakan Krisdayanti. Lagu ini keluar tahun 2000. Pada tahun itu, aku magang di perpustakaan The Jakarta Post selama 2 bulan. Lagu yang keluar di tahun yang sama dan lebih populer adalah Mencintaimu tapi aku lebih suka lagu Yang Kumau. Aku suka dengan lirik dan melodinya. Liriknya menunjukkan keraguan menyelesaikan sebuah hubungan karena secara logis tidak ada harapan. Masalahnya kalau soal hubungan asmara, tidak ada yang logis. Seringnya ku berpikir sampai pernahTak jua kutemukan jalan keluarnyaJika memang bukan ini sudah tamatkanlahKarena ku tak mau waktuku terbuangJangan memaksakan iniJika memang bukan iniKarena sesuatu yang pekaBuat kita jadi masalahYang…

A song from the past – Days are Numbers
Jadi seri judul ini aku persembahkan ke beberapa lagu yang pada suatu waktu sering aku dengarkan. Lagu pertama pada seri ini adalah “Days are Numbers” dari The Alan Parsons Project. Aku kurang ingat bagaimana aku menemukan lagu ini. Lagu ini sangat enak didengarkan pada masa aku naik bus atau angkutan kecil, pulang pergi ke kampus di Salemba. Rumahku masih di Jalan Damai, Kalisari, Jakarta Timur. Aku simpan lagu ini di MP3 player warna pink seharga sekitar 30 ribuan dengan klip di bagian belakang. Kalau tidak salah, aku beli di Depok. Lirik lagunya begini. The traveler is always leaving townHe never has the time to turn aroundAnd if the road he’s…
