Goodbye

Lately, I’ve been thinking about how fast trains leave the station

It’s like you’re at Semarang Tawang listening to “empat penari kian menari…..”

Won’t take that long you fall asleep, then suddenly there’s a woman wake you up like this “in few minutes xxxxx will arrive in Bekasi”

The next thing you know, it’s Pasar Senen already

Not to mention, the smell of Roti’O hits your nose

People in our lives are like the train

And we’re the stations

There are so many different people we’ve met

Come and go

But as far as this route is, this so-called next stop may be the chance for us to see each other eyes again someday

Meeting someone is nice

However, we should be able to accept the fact that someday we may say goodbye to them

Maybe we don’t think we could, until we do

That’s how life is

Quite frankly, they leave but the memories don’t

The laugh

The tears

The moment we’ve been through together

Thick, think, and everything in between

For what it’s worth, we can’t put a price on it

All those things make us realize how important every minute we have with someone is

How they mean to us

To end this, I’d like to remind us to appreaciate people who try to make time for us

We never know how much time we have with them

Enjoy it until it becomes memories
