there ain’t privacy no more

I can’t think. Or maybe I think too much. It’s a stream of incessant thinking that is slowly driving me to the depths of depression. Here, right now, time feels like an eternity. Or timeless. A complete fountain of paradoxes, that you know not the difference between the two, because two extreme poles they seem to converge at one point.

Call it madness. Call it whatever the fuck you want. I know when I’m being extremely touchy that I loathe every single fucking encounter with any human being that I crave that moment where I can finally disappear, away from everyone else, at least from everyone I know. I can anticipate when these bouts of extreme existentialism comes. I don’t know what that means anymore. I don’t wanna know. It sounds good though, right now.

Maybe I need a quick fix, maybe I aught to go and really admit that I am that sad and morose and all that negativity, instead of just blaming it on the lack of enthusiasm/response I give due to boredom of everything else. Maybe they’ll do me wonders, maybe they really patch things up, maybe they’ll give you a sense of well being, even for a minute or two.

Every single fucking day you feel as if you’re sucked into this world not your own, being forced doing things you do not want to submit to in the first, yet you tell to yourself; yes I can still stand all of this shite, when you know you’re gonna break down sooner or later. Maybe not today, maybe not next week, maybe not in this fucking year, maybe… I don’t know. You sit down and say, I am I am I am.

It fucked up, I tell ya, when you show up at people’s door without any apparent reason, not knowing what to do, or say, or react. It’s not as if you need ’em, it’s not that they’d ever understand you, even if they proclaim they read you like a fucking book, because humans never really understand other humans. They just assume they do, and they understand people in their own understanding, making wild assumptions and jumping to erroneous conclusions it’s fucking hilarious.

You want to be away from other people, to get away from a place, yet you know you fucking can’t because you can’t gather enough will to get out of ye own bed, so you’re stuck in that one place, until somebody creeps in, and fucking talks to you like you’re a goddam piece of delicate vegetable that needs saving. Well I don’t need saving. Not from people like you, anyway.

You ask me to define people like you, because you are grossly offended, or perhaps a wee bit curious of how my mind works. You’d want my bit of gems, preaching me, obsessing over me, like I’m some fucking goddess when I’m really this fucked up piece of shit. Ye ask if I believed in the almighty, if I had anyone I love, if I still remember whatever I say to you, ye keep asking me like I’m some fucking answering machine.

Oh fine I’ll tell you then, when I feel all too amused by a situation as such. People like you, are just mostly everybody else. I could elaborate for hours on that but sorry, mate, I’ m just not inta it anymore. Or more accurately, I’m just not into you, or what you’re trying to do. I’m just bothered by your presence, like a fly in the market, like a flea in the marketplace, just like what dear old Nietzsche (but you call him knee-shaw) described in his book.

Alas, you call me delusional, telling me that I live in my own world, , conjuring up false tales about you and other people, that I am delirious and henceforth declare me unhealthy. If so then stop bothering me, I don’t need you nor your nasty diagnosis, your declaration of love, your words of comfort, your preachy voice, and whatever else you want to present. All I can say is fuck off and be rid of my sight.

Just leave me alone, because I am better off that way.

And you may start to wonder, what the heck happened to me.

malam itu

Kisah emo tak bertempat. Dan semestinya tidak benar
**

Malam itu, dia fikir, bahawa dia mahu lari jauh-jauh. Otaknya serabut.

Jadi dia capai kunci kereta, telefon bimbitnya, sedikit wang, dan masukkan kesemuanya dalam saku. Dia berjalan menuju ke pintu dan berpaling.

“Macam ada yang tak kena”.

Dia berfikir sejenak lagi, sebab dia tahu yang mungkin, dia tak akan berjumpa dah orang-orang lain selepas ini, kemudian teringatkan sesuatu, lalu mencapai jam tangan warna putih pemberian ayahnya, lantas memakainya.

Masa, pada malam itu, penting, dia fikir.

Sesudah sampai di suatu tempat, tempat yang dia seringkali lalu tiap-tiap kali ingin pulang rumah, tapi tak pernah dikunjungi, dia keluar dan park keretanya betul-betul tepi jalan raya. Lebuhraya, lebih tepat.

Tepi sebuah tasik (dirahsiakan lokasi), dia baring di atas rumput yang separa basah dan melihat di atas. Bintang-bintang nun di atas sana seakan sedang membentuk satu senyuman dari jauh. Sangat jauh. Tapi masih kelihatan.

Dia pasang lagu Y Control kemudian menari-nari sorang-sorang sambil pejam mata. Bila dia berpusing, dia rasa macam semua perkara dalam kepalanya, segala punca kerungsingannya, dan semua memorinya hilang ditelan malam.

Tiba-tiba lagu terhenti dan memainkan ringtone yang baru. Dia mencebik sambil merungut seorang diri “Egh, kacau betul”

Dia angkat. Sambil itu tengok jam di tangan. Oh sudah pukul 12 belas rupanya.

“Kau di mana sebenarnya?”
“Tempat paling indah di dunia”
“Kau tahu, yang kami semua cari kau?”
“Mm… Jadi?”
“Datang balik ke sini”
“Tak Nak”
“Kenapa?”
“Sebab aku mahu jadi solitari sebentar, untuk mengucapkan selamat tinggal pada diri sendiri. Jadi selamat tinggal”

Dia letak telefon. Lagu Y Control berkumandang semula.

Sambil itu dia berpusing-pusing lagi sampai dia jatuh. Seeloknya biar dia jatuh tertidur, atau pengsan, atau terhantuk sesuatu, atau yang paling bagus, jatuh ke dalam tasik itu.

Malam itu, dia bermain nasib. Macam tahun-tahun sebelumnya.

Harap-harapnya malam itu, hajatnya ditunaikan.

This is typical of me. Ugh. Being eighteen sucks.
