"People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master."

-Elizabeth Gilbert

people put you down enough, then you start to believe it.
you start to think that it was all your fault and only yours, not anyone else. you start to think that you can never be good enough for anything and anyone. it's like every tiny pieces of a roll film start to play in your messy head. and seems like everybody blame you, in that film. you shrieking slowly, ask for someone to help you to stop that harshful pain but no one's there. you start to choose the second option: hurting yourself. through cutting, or else. and in the end, you feel empty because the pain in your body is much same as the pain in your broken heart.
pity, pity you.

Hentikan.
Saya tak sanggup lagi menahan rindu yang terlalu lama dipendam.
Rasanya semua perasaan yang membuncah di dada menyeruak keluar.
Berganti wujud. Menjadi tetes-tetes.
Tak tahu lagi harus merasa apa.
Saya merindu.
Tak cukupkah alasan itu?
