free

I laid there under my blanket, staring at the message I just wrote but haven’t sent. It is pretty simple, it is written “I gotta say it. I love you”

but I haven’t sent it.

I closed my eyes tight and a tear actually dropped.

I turned 24 just to be afraid to say i love you?

How wrong could those three words be?

I kicked my blanket away and started typing here. I’ll tell you how wrong it could go.

It means a lot yet could mean nothing at all.

It could destroy the perfectly balanced relationship one already have.

It would crawl from your pure heartbeat, slowly up to your brains, clutched deep at the edges of your mind and become a responsibility. Any of you loving someone just because you have said it?

We are letting words, sex, promises, and the damn friendster and facebook status, to limit how we actually feel.

After all, to be free to feel is more important than feeling free.

Truth is, I AM in love. There is a hop in my walk. I sing while I am cycling, for heaven sake.

When I put them into words, will it all stop?

Call it a silly crush, but seriously, when was the last time we love someone not because she is beautiful and he is smart? when was the last time we love someone and can’t explain why?

My point is, we should stop making goals to go bungee jumping or such. Because have you ever sat on a grass with your feet dangling in a river and just do nothing?

so,

should I send it?

  1. So….hang on….
    First you have trouble saying I love you….now you find it difficult pressing the “send” button?

    Damn….24!

  2. just do it
    No regrets for our youth

  3. @mas Renno: yep exactly. typing was easy, and then the ’send’ button was sooo scary. well yah, 24.
    @someone: i did send it.

  4. Sometimes it’s not the three words that we’re scared to say, it’s the fact they mean something we’re not sure whether we’re ready for them to mean or not.
    If that makes sense.
    Good for you for bringing yourself to do it though :)

  5. Andy, it makes a lottt of sense…it would be so much better if we could feel without thinking..so from now on, i refuse to think! not so difficult for me hehe…

  6. Haha, but without thinking behind the feeling the whole concept of ‘romance’ kind of fails. :P But then who am I to talk? I’m in ‘love’ (I refuse to accept that it is real LOVE, because they don’t feel the same way (as far as I know) and it’d be wierrd) with someone 12 years older than me so I’d say I wasn’t thinking when I chose that feeling. :lol: I hate how if my head says no my heart will always say yes.

  7. ya ampun, ri !!!! kenapa ga dari dulu ngomong ke aku……gampang koq ,ri !!!! aku terima deh….dengan tulus…..wkwkkwkwkwkw

  8. don’t remind me that number 24
    it haunts me like crazy :( :( :(
    as for me, i don’t ‘type and send’ those words
    i have to say it in person impulsively (if there’s such word) :D
