I might not be the most honest person out there, in fact I lied thousands of times before and can almost always get away with it. I did my time, and I know damn well now how much it hurts to be lied to and feeling like you have deluded yourself all along in the end, that's why when you came along I swear to myself to be as truthful as I can be and expect the same from you to hinder myself from all the delusions. So I don't know if you noticed, but with you, I have never been the one who pointed out how much we eerily connected with each other no matter how obvious it was, unless you said it first --that was how much delusions scared me. 

Words can't describe how happy I was the days when everything with you felt effortless because for the first time in so long, I found someone who was just like the copy of my mind (<- also the name of a vulgar indonesian movie), everything just clicked and our hardest argument would only be that you hate the idea of ketupat in ketoprak to be replaced with lontong and I love ketoprak with lontong the most, haha. We were too similar we even started a game of finding differences on our shared interest. We couldn't even bet on who would win an F1 GP because we root for the same driver (and also because Hamilton always wins), we bet on Hamilton's winning margin instead. I know it's crazy to think that you were capable in faking any of it, especially the sequence of coincidences such as that one time you complained about how you desperately need a new shirt when I was literally holding a new shirt for you. You could also noticed the slightest change on my mood no matter how much I tried to hide it. I don't know if it's possible to create an illusion of such things but even if it is, allow me to fool myself one last time that at least all of the connections that I felt with you was real. I refuse to believe that any of it were merely a delusion, believe the easier truth, right?

Maybe you lied about the rest, or maybe you didn't -but I'm sure you stopped telling the truth at some point, because in the end the things you said and the things you did just don't add up. I wish I can negate everything just because I despise the ending so so bad, but I can't, this unwanted memories of how well it was at the start just won't let me. 

But don't worry, I won't cling to it, I know that there's no use in jotting down how similar we were with each other, because there will always be this inevitable differences of how much you want your past to be your future while to me you are the only past that I have right now -and that I could never understand what you wanted the same way you could never understand what I felt about you.

In the halls of your hotel

Arm around my shoulder so I could tell

How much I meant to you, meant it sincere back then

We had time to kill back then

You ain't a kid no more

We'll never be those kids again

It's not the same, ivory's illegal

Don't you remember?

Is this it?

Have you ever did a real bad thing in your life and live with a constant guilt afterwards, that you thought every single bad thing that keeps happening to you is just the way of universe punishing you -and that you deserve every tiny part of the pain? I can't really recall when was the first time I start living with this horrible mindset weighing me, but it does took me months of repetitive small unnecessary breakdowns to finally losing it last night and cry the shit out over The Strokes' Is This It -alone in my hotel room, thinking I am so done with universe punishing me and shit. I snapped last night and when I was finally too tired to continue crying, I thought to myself that maybe universe was actually never that evil, maybe I did this to myself, maybe the things that break me are just a product of my own belief -believing that I need to suffer from every cosmic surprise that went south from my own expectation and immediately perceiving it as another form of life punishme...
