This is why I need you

I have so many questions, and places to go
There are too many options, far too many unknowns
This is why I need you

(And) everyone talks now, but no one is right
There are too many armies, with no one to fight
This is why I need you

Cause you make the darkness less dark
You make the edges less sharp
You make the winter feel warmer
(And) you make my weakness less weak
You make the bottom less deep
You make the waiting feel shorter
You make my crazy feel normal, every time
You are the who, love is the what, and this is the why

There are so many problems, and no one who cares
There are so many roads, and they all need repairs
This is why I need you

And there's not enough chocolate, there's too many chores
There are so many mountains, that I haven't explored
This is why I need you

You keep the ship moving forward
And you make it easy to try
You make my crazy feel normal, every time
You are the who, love is the what, and this is the why

“Cheers to myself for surviving another year! May I have many more wonderful, crazy years ahead of me! Happy Birthday, Me!“

Puji Tuhan, terima kasih atas rezeki yang masih Kau berikan untuk selalu mencukupkan saya dan keluarga, atas bertambahnya usia saya di tiap 5 Mei bersama bahagianya orang di sekitar saya khususnya tahun ini. Kiranya Tuhan selalu menjaga mereka yang tiada hari tanpa menyayangi saya.

Terakhir merayakan bersama itu waktu ulang tahun ke-17. Setelahnya, mencar merantau semuanya. Terima kasih, Babang & Ibur sudah menyempatkan sebelum ke Jakarta juga Mamas yang nemenin adeknya, mari bersyukur! Akhirnya foto bareng lagi di hari ulang tahunku 😊💕

Kau, yang sudah hadir tiga kali berturut-turut di tiga kota yang berbeda, Surabaya, Jakarta dan Yogyakarta. Terima kasih untuk waktu yang sudah kau luangkan menujuku. Saya menyayangimu.
