lopong

Aku sanjung kamu bersungguh,

Kerana sentiasa tahu apa aku perlu

Tapi tidak apa aku mahu. 


Aku ajukan mahuku pada diriku. 

Mengharap Tuhan bantu, terangkan gelapku. 


Namun, kosongnya masih melapang.

Seperti ada luah yang ditanam.

Ada gali tidak berkesudahan. 

Ada lopong yang tenggelam. 


Pulih lah hati. 

Pulih sendiri.








terbelah dua

Aku dibina dari dasar yang kukuh 

Dari asas yang teguh 

Dari penjuru yang tidak lengkung 

Aku dibina dari kata yang membunuh 

Dari bunyi yang menikam 

Dari tajam mulut manusia 


Tapi aku juga mahu lemah 

Mahu ada masa dipapah 


Setiap kali itu 

Aku tunggu hujan alirkan tangisku 

Ku tunggu petir alunkan raungku 

Ku tunggu alam cerminkan siksaku 


Berlalunya pergi awan Tuhan beri 

Kembalilah aku menjadi manusia sakti 

Yang kukuhnya berdiri, tapi rapuh hampir mati 

Yang terbiasa berhenti di noktah, tapi ingin bahunya dipapah 


Segeralah mari awan dan ribut. 

Alunkan raungku. 

Alirkan tangisku.

Day 13 Pantang - Miscarriage 8 wks

I think 13 is the maximum days I can tolerate to be inside. Literally fresh air pun dari dalam rumah je. 

Luckily this week Hubby is working from home - so by 5pm sharp I already made an early proposal to go out. Tak kisahlah semata nak beli burger or roti from bakery nearby. Bengkung is a MUST for now. 

Work goes on. getting urgent things done. Leaving important things behind.

Back to the proposal - let's go anywhere but here. My 14-days MC is about to end. So let's just drive out.

We made our way to grocery. Bakery for sure, cuz I craved for bread so much. 

Some say tak boleh makan tepung. But I do not see the significance of having flour intake into your body.

I spent too much on the screen (read:phone) and I do a lot of reading and google. 

Apparently - Pantang has a lot of definition, say traditional or modern. 

I think medically, you can survive with or without pantang. But it depends on your daily activities. 

Compare to the good ol'days, a lot of people had to work hard and be very active. While now? even I myself pun work from office, less walk everyday - by 5pm dah rasa exhausted. 

Balik rumah rasa nak mandi, makan tidur je. 

Plus, nowadays a lot of preservatives. Which makes that almost everything artificial to take. 


So what I'm trying is having balanced diet and lifestyle. Everyone knows TTC dah amek masa almost half a lifetime. To recover pun lebih kurang je. 

What I know as of now, make sure how you care for yourself during confinement is the same as what u need to practice in daily activities.


Rugi lah kan kalau masa pantang jaga macam gila, but end up to have you eat fast food again after 30 or 40 days? 

Long term effect dia sama je. You will get sick eventually. Cuma lambat dgn cepat je. 

For someone yang suka coffee, especially 3 in 1 sebab mudah. I am trying to cut back unnecessary sugar and simple carbs. 

Menu for the last 12 days mudah yakmat. 

Nasi putih / bubur

Milo / kopi / teh / susu kambing / madu

Biskut

Ikan tenggiri / merah / kerisi - masak asam rebus, singgang, air fried

Anggur / kurma / limau


One time I had ayam golek, sebab rasa mcm nk muntah makan ikan. Other than that - all of the above. My mom is corporate thinking person, so everything yg boleh cover pakai supplemen, amek je supplement. Ada good ada bad jgk la. While my MIL is traditional way of thinking. Having both combined - you dapat A & B option. 

By day 7, I was getting a lot better. Dah boleh masak sendiri. Terus grab penyapu and vacum. Rasa nak sental bilik air, but my cramps still there. But do not try this at home. I was getting more cramps sebab tiba tiba berjalan banyak sangat kot. 

Day 10, I want to recover fast. So I try to reduce bengkung slowly and try to adjust to cramps jugak. 

Ramadhan is reaching in 3 days. 4 hari yang tahun lepas pun tak sempat berganti lagi. 

Let's continue another 17 days to end the confinement days!

Dear Love

I want to be sane and healthy again. So I'm trying my best to avoid all possibilities that could lead me to another breakdown. 

I am somehow curious if I can heal fast. 

Sesungguhnya Allah Maha Mendengar. 

I want to be calm again. He gave me the right person to do me good. 

He gave me you, Love. 

You started working on my day 6 confinement. I couldn't help but missing you when you're away. I look forward to 5pm, cuz that's when your hours end and you'll be home to me. 

Your presence is more than enough. 

Words are just to break the silence. But I rather spend the rest of the remaining night to see your face and smell you deeply. 

I like watching you sleep. I like watching you walk, sleep, move, eat, drink and needless to say, I love seeing you alive. 

Thank you for just breathing. Be healthy, Love. 

You helped me so much. You made me stronger than I was. You made me so much better. 

Thank you for marrying me ❤️
